We’ll push out PDP in 2015 – Buhari

A veteran presidential candidate and a major stakeholder in the newly-registered All Progressives Congress, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) on Tuesday said the new party was determined to push out the ruling Peoples Democratic Party in 2015.

“The APC is focus-driven to push the PDP out of power by 2015,” Buhari told members of the Democratic Emancipation Movement who paid him a courtesy visit in Kaduna.

But the PDP said on Tuesday that Buhari, who ruled Nigeria as a military Head of State between 1983 and 1985, was day-dreaming.

“There is no way the APC can win the election in 2015. He (Buhari) is day-dreaming,” Acting National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr. Tony Okeke, said in reaction to the ex-Head of State boast.

Buhari contested the presidential election on the platforms of two political parties in 2003, 2007 and 2011 and lost to the PDP candidates in all.

In the 2003 and 2007 elections, he was the candidate of the All Nigeria Progressive Party against PDP’s Olusegun Obasanjo and Umaru Yar’Adua respectively. In 2011, he contested against incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan on the platform of the Congress for Progressive Change, now a third of the new APC.

The APC is the product of a merger of CPC, ANPP and the Action Congress of Nigeria.

But Buhari said whether he would run in the 2015 poll or not would depend on whether the APC wanted him or not.

“My decision will be tied to the constitution of the APC. If the party chooses me as its candidate, I will contest. If the members do not consider me, I will not contest but I will still support the party. My decision to run for 2015 will solely be that of the party,” Buhari said.

He said that the APC would give Nigerians a new lease of life and hope that would make the country rank top in the comity of nations.

He also lauded the nation’s electoral umpire the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for mustering the courage to register APC.

The former Head of State noted that he had thought of a merger of political forces to wrest power from the PDP in 2007.

He admitted that in the past, the opposition parties in the country had made mistakes because “we made ourselves vulnerable.”

He added that for the country to survive, the main opposition parties had to come together to wrest power from the PDP.

Buhari said, “I thought about this merger in 2007. This is because I found out that none of the opposition parties can challenge PDP successfully. But if we come together with those that have representation at the National Assembly and the Houses of Assembly and go back to sensitise our constituencies, even if the PDP want to rig they would find it impossible to rig.

“I discovered that by being so divisive, we made ourselves very vulnerable. So, the best way to survive and for this country to stabilise we just have to come together and I believe, along the line, we made necessary sacrifices.

“The tension in the country has already come down; people now think that they have a viable alternative. These feelings and belief is across the country, not only in the North or in the South-West. There is a good feeling about the party in all the political zones of the country.

“Our next important step is the mobilisation of constituencies to make sure that elections are conducted according to the law.

The ex-Head of State lauded the Independent National Electoral Commission for registering the APC.

He said, “To be honest, we have to thank INEC because when we thought we had applied according to the 2010 Electoral Act, INEC drew our attention to the Electoral Act provision that said that there must be a headquarters at the federal capital that is good enough to be called headquarters of a national party. Then there was the issue of our constitution, our manifesto, and the harmonisation of the main three parties.

“We thought that the initial nine signatories were enough to manage the party on the interim between registration and convention, but INEC advised us and told us that we needeed to get between at least 25 or 35 people to come out from the whole geopolitical zones to sign.

“If INEC wanted to be wicked, they could have kept mute and just sent us a letter that our application was not complete. They could have done that. But for them to send us an observation which was later corrected, I believe they have been very impartial and we thank them for that.”

Buhari’s optimism about the APC notwithstanding, the PDP said the new party was incapable of winning in 2015.

Okeke said, “Nigerians have realised that the PDP is the only political party that has their interest at heart. The APC on the other hand is merely lusting for power and that its members don’t have the interest of Nigerians at heart.

“The APC is a party of despots, dictators who love to impose candidates on the people. Nigerians are tired of such people.”

Meanwhile, the APC’s interim chairman, Chief Bisi Akande, has said the new party will welcome Jonathan into its fold if the President is tired of the crises in his party.

Akande at a press briefing in Abuja on Tuesday said, “We don’t even close our door to the PDP. If Jonathan is tired of the crises in the PDP, he is welcome in the APC.”

But Jonathan’s Special Assistatnt on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, said that Akande’s call to the President was a final vindication that Jonathan was God-sent.

Okupe said there was no crisis that was insurmountable in the PDP and described Akande’s ‘‘invitation’’ as a welcome development.

Let change the way we leaved!let change the we Rule!Let change the way the power is!!! Nigerians need change in Goverment…we need someone competent! some that face with lion heart!!Nigerians ple think twice bcos we’ll have being slavery for 14years in our own father land…no(food010!job!!power failure!!!no fd road!!! leaved under $2)and it continue under this same party people…we’ll need change pls..stand up for change….

Yes we need change but we do not need any gun man to hijack the seat of power again, having decimated the first Republic and removed a democratically elected government of Shehu Shagari,, Buhari will never ever win election in the country of my birth again.

GEJ HAS DONE BETTER IN ABOUT 2YEARS MORE THAN WHAT WE SAW IN THE PAST 14 AND 38 YEARS!! HE IS NOT GOD WHO COMPLETED CREATION IN 7DAYS!!! THEY CAN TRY THIS 1MILLION TIMES BUT AS LONG AS NIGERIANS UNDERSTAND THEIR EVIL LIFE STYLE, THEY GO NO WHERE. AS LONG AS IGBOS ARE NOT BEHIND PEOPLE LIKE OKOROCHA IN APC THEY FAILED BECAUSE THEY WISH TO HAVE ROCHAS USED AS A FRONT IN SOUTH EAST TO BREAK PDP STRENGTH. ABOVE ALL THERE ARE TRACES OF BOKO HARAM IN APC BUT IT IS HOPED THEY MOVE WITH CAUTION OTHERWISE THE FULL WEIGHT OF JTF WILL APPLY . THEY HAVE TO AVOID THEIR WAYS OF VIOLENCE.

And what London Boy is saying, is that PEOPLE SHOULD STOP TALKING AS IF GEJ CAUSED THE PROBLEMS!

And what guaranty do you have that Buhari or APC will not maintain the status quo?

TOBBY777

Nobody is saying Jonthan caused the problems, but what people are saying is JOnathan is not doing enough to tame the problems, rather he is letting the problems to spread. As for your question pertaining to APC, if we are to judge the party by the performances of their governors, they might deviate a little from the status quo but if we are to judge them by their members in the national assembly, i am sorry to say they will maintain the status quo that was why in one of my post relating to the deportation to Anambra State, i begged Nigerians to look for an alternative to the pdp. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

Osibisa

2 or 4 years is not enough time to rebuild or repair a 52 years old damage or destruction of Nigeria. A damage that transcends the entire country and affects the fabric of society, from our abandoned roads, hospitals and health scheme, Universities, Police Colleges, the Police, Aviation, Railway and other public transportation, abandonment of Agriculture, capacity building, Refineries, Electricity, Roads, you name it.

But remember that it is harder and it takes time to rebuild than to destroy. What can take minutes to destroy (like a Skyscraper) can take several years to rebuild. A good example is the Twin Towers in NYC. They took seconds to raze down, but took several years to rebuild ‘Ground Zero’.

Your posts often demonstrate your lack of problem solving skills or knowledge, or your lack of management skills or managerial incapability. Someone who is skilled in Management will appreciate the systematic rebuilding works and efforts of the President. A good and experienced manager will understand that you solve problems one at a time and according to PRIORITIES!

It may be the turn of RAILWAY (for mass transit) today, and Electricity or refurbishment of Airports or roads repairs and restoration tomorrow. It could be building capacity and reducing unemployment and poverty through GIS (Graduate Internship Scheme) initiative today and the SMEs scheme (to create jobs and business or small industries and improve GDP) tomorrow. It could be fixing the Police College Ikeja today to building more Universities tomorrow to checkmate ILLITERACY!

It could be fixing Lagos-Ore-Benin road today to fixing the Lagos-Ibadan road tomorrow. It could be investing in Agriculture today to something else tomorrow. It could be strengthening the Financial sector today to strengthening the economy tomorrow. It could be ‘unbundling’ NEPA today to uninterrupted power supply tomorrow.

Everything takes time, and it is according to PRIORITIES. It has only been 2 years since he was elected as President, remember? And he has scored high on those listed PRIORITIES.

If you ask me, he has done well EVEN DESPITE THE LANDMINES DELIBERATELY PLACED ON HIS PATH SO AS NOT TO SUCCEED BY THOSE OF YOU THAT THREATENED TO MAKE THINGS DIFFICULT FOR HIM AND RENDER THE COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE! What do you expect when your brothers openly threatened to FRUSTRATE HIS REBUILDING EFFORT BY MAKING THE COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE? Yet you open your mouth to say ‘what people are saying…’. Which people? The same ones that vowed to DESTROY THINGS?

What I’m saying, and what other discerning people are saying, is that Nigeria was badly run down in the past and was IMPOVERISHED. It was WASTED and run into DEBTS by those you celebrate as heroes today. By those that the 5 Northern Governors have been running from Pillar to Posts consulting, as if they are authorities on GOOD GOVERNANCE!

Nigeria was IMPOVERISHED and in HUGE DEBTS until OBJ CAME AND LIBERATED US FROM THE FANGS OF DEBT! YarAdua tried to reverse the gains, but GEJ is steadying the course and gradually REBUILDING THE DAMAGES! Is he perfect? Of course, not! Has he finished achieving? Of course, not! But then, he has done only 2 years of his 4 years term, and you feel qualified to judge and condemn him? Then you are clueless!

TOBBY777

The three years jonathan has spent in power are outside the 52 years you talking about i guess?

Nobody is saying two years is enough to repair more than 40 years destruction. You will agree with me that two years is enough to draw a map for a better tomorrow.

Talking of priority, if you are asked to pick a priority today as a Nigerian will you chose the renovation of airports and building new Universities?

Obj came and liberated us from the fangs of debt, Yar Adua tried to reverse the gains, but GEJ is steadying the course and gradually REBUILDING THE DAMAGES! Clap for yourself for these TISSUES of lies.

If your profession that has a title LEARNED attached to it could not inculcate manners into you, i wonder what will. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

Osibisa

You have hit the nail on the head. As you said, 2 years is enough time to draw a map (blueprint). After that you begin IMPLEMENTATION. He has just completed 2 years of his 4 years term. (The latter part of YarAdua’s administration does not count, as GEJ could not have planned, while not sure if he will be elected by Nigerians).

So taking it from 2 years of ‘drawing a map’ (according to you), why then do you complain that he has not done ANYTHING or that HE HAS MADE THINGS WORSE? Can’t you see CONTRADICTIONS there?

Have you ever taken a peep at his TRANSFORMATION AGENDA? Do take a peep and see the well crafted STRATEGIES and BLUEPRINT (or MAP, as you call it). And if you observe carefully, he has been implementing the agenda.

Roads are being rehabilitated.
Airports and Railway lines too.
NEPA has been PRIVATISED to function like the Cell (mobile) phones companies. (Remember that NO SERIOUS INVESTOR WILL INVEST IN AN UNWORTHY VENTURE AND COMMIT BILLIONS OF NAIRA TO UNDERTAKE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.

As I also said before, he is developing CAPACITY through Graduates Internship scheme (GIS), SMEs, which would also boost employment and increase the nations GDP.

Agriculture is being boosted.

Elections have been successfully conducted in Ondo and Edo States without rancour. Which tells me that he has done some things right in that sector.

Did you say he hasn’t done ANYTHING? RETHINK, my friend!

TOBBY777

You seems to be one only one that does not know the 2015 ambition has relegated every other thing to the background.

There is some improvements in our roads and railway. As for NEPA, please dont just go there. You talking about privatisation as if this is the first time we are hearing that word. It makes me sick when people compare light to cell phones. We are told we are more than 167 million people and we have less than 90 million lines in Nigeria. Before i forgot, some Nigerians having as many as 4 to 5 lines. More than 40 of those that have phones in this Country have more than 1 lines. So when you do a proper arithmetic, you will be shocked to realise that Nigerian that are using phones today are less than 50 million people. So please sir, dont compare light with cell phones.

I am sick and tired of statistics that are never translated to the lives of people. How many graduates have this scheme employed? We are told our economy is growing at the highest rate in the world, but our employment is declining daily. I dont have to be an economist to know that economic growth translate to better standard of living for the people and open doors for employment and not the other way round as it is in my Country.

While agreeing with you that elections were successfully held in edo and ondo states, you are making the mistake of giving the peoples victory to the government, just like the president gave the 2011 victory of the masses to some elites. Those elections were demonstrations that Nigerians are now ready to take their destinies in their hands. The people of Edo State voted and refused to return home until their votes were counted and some of them stayed put at the pooling station for hours. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

Osibisa

You this guy, are you really for real? If Nigeria has a population of 167 million, as you claim, have you noted how many of them are children, elderly, out of the country, dead, etc? Perhaps, you want mobile phones to be given to newborn babies, who also make up the 167 million population.

Conversating with you gives one a headache sometimes. God will give you wisdom one day.

Mr. Man, the worse of democracies is better the best of juntas, can’t you see? must power failure persist? we want action and delivery of democratic dividends not increase in fuel money without show for it (SURE-P another avenue for looting).

Why didnt Buhari fix power when he was the President. I don’t get, please did he forget something in Aso Rock?.
If he is a fresh candidate, i might accept a proposed change but Buhari has antecedent in politics. He didnt achieve anything.
Moreso no reasonable contribution to curtail Boko Haram from him.

When Buhari ruled as a military head of state, nobody dare toy with electricity, we had almost a steady source of power, the civil service was on their toes always unlike what obtains now, go back to history and find out, I am not a fan of Buhari, but just stating the fact.

Of course before elections that brought GEJ Buhari advocated violence which was exhibited by the boko haram then against NYSC youths who went for the election in the north. this is just an example , s tip of an ice berg ! APC is just more of Muslim brotherhood party in Egypt and when Morsi was elected he removed his sheep’s clothing . today Egypt appeared bad and dangerous not how Mubarak left it.

COMMON SENSE

I hold no brief for Buhari but this is my take on what transpired, election results were announced and disgruntled northern youths took to the streets to vent their anger. They started killing people and doing all sorts which I strongly condemn, Buhari before the election said his people should fight for their votes and not kill. On the issue of boko harem I believe you need to do a proper research on how they started but I will give you an idea. Boko harem started has a Muslim group that promoted strict adherence to Islam and it started growing, the Borno state gov then took notice and started using them for political gains. After the election the govt did not fulfil its end of the bargain and so the killing started. It became national when there leader was killed in police detention .
Finally your take on APC being full of Muslims is absolute rubbish, Oshiomole, Fayemi, Ngige, Okorocha are Muslims abi

So the Northern elders hate Jonathan so much that they start killing their own children in order to show their hatred for Jonathan?

It is illogical. Some things just don’t add up.

I am beginning to believe Henry Okah who said the Presidency approached him to use MEND to wreak havoc in the North starting with the bomb blast of October 1st 2010. When he refused, they found other willing tools. He is locked up in South Africa to silence him.

He was a disciplinarian because he followed orders all his lives and mind you we are presently practicing democracy and not military regime.

In my candid opinion Buhari is far from being ready to return Nigeria to her former glory because he banished that sleep long time ago when he declared a pogrom so that he will score a political point.

You haven’t got a clue. Ask us that were around when Buhari was head of state. He brought sanity and discipline. Yes it was tough on Nigerians largely because we are by nature a lawless bunch. Sad; younger ones are so lazy they bought all the lies they were been told about Buhari. If Obasanjo said in 2011 that Buhari is upright what else do you need to know? There is no country that refuses orders that have become anything? rule of law are a form of orders. A Buhari would never have allowed 5 law makers to attempt to unseat a speaker in a house of 32 members. A Buhari approved demolishing of a mosque in Kano because it violates planning permission, he also ordered the suspension a Sultan of Sokoto, until then an untouchable stool. He pushed the Maitasene islamic sect all the way to Chad even though he is a muslim. Unknown to you he is patriotic and served all his commanders loyally; tribe or religion notwithstanding. His Military assistant is a christian back in the days and when asked the now pastor with a pentecostal church said you only have problem with Buhari on discipline not religion. to Buhari 7 O’clock is 7 O’clock not 7.01 period.

Buhari was just a “sidon look”, and he was looking just as he does in this picture, while Idiagbon was using the intelligence Buhari lacked to instill discipline.

Buhari should go and practice his ‘disciplinarian’ skills in some PRIMARY or SECONDARY SCHOOL, if that is all he is bringing to the table. What Nigeria needs is an INTELLIGENT, DIPLOMATIC AND FLEXIBLE LEADER (NOT RULER), WHO IS ABLE TO CARRY EVERYONE ALONG. Not some KHAKI OR SOJA-BOY, who believes in whipping or FLOGGING EVERYBODY, like ANIMALS!

Sadly, his supporters do not have the INTELLIGENCE to understand that HE CANNOT IMPEACH NASS MEMBERS, BUT THE OTHER WAY ROUND! THEY, AND NOT HIM, CAN ‘DISCIPLINE’ THE OTHER THROUGH IMPEACHMENT!

Besides, he murdered DEMOCRACY in 1983, he cannot BENEFIT FROM IT EVER!

I canvass for change, the change of our mindset, beliefs and attitude. We need societal overhauling that will re-orient all of us and put us on the path that will enrich our lives as a country.

NIGERIA WILL BE A BETTER COUNTRY IF THE LIKES OF MUHAMMADU BUHARI ARE CONSIGNED TO THE DUSTBIN OF HISTORY

Definitely he is not the Messiah that we seek in this country.

Votary of Truth

So the GEJ that you are flag waving is the youth that we need abi? We youths! LOL!!! What kind of youth are you?

In a normal setting GEJ has not got the qualifications to be a mayor of a city. I have seen Robert Mugabe live…. GEJ cannot match him in terms of articulation and intelligence. Ask anybody.

Youth my feet! When Chris Okotie came out for your support as a youth; what was your response miss Youth?

My dear, please stop wiping unnecessary emotions and sentiments. Your positions on national issues have given you out.
We know who you are. OK

Henry Onwugbenu

if i may ask you, what do you think oga Chris Okotie would have done if elected, beside i see where your own intelligence has brought you since you spend time comparing.

Osibisa

But GEJ is much younger. If only you shirk your bias, and see the good works that he is establishing, then you will appreciate him more. If only you realise that Buhari had no ECONOMIC POLICY and only believed in BULLYING TACTICS during his regime in the 80s.

If only you can recognise the improvements and developments, like the Railway lines, Airport refurbishments, Roads being fixed and rehabilitated, Graduates Employment schemes, SMEs, unbundling of NEPA (to make it function like the Mobile phones) so that light or electricity will boku yanfu yanfu).

If only you want to know the truth! But you don’t! And if only you can confront your State Governors (WHO ARE CLOSER TO YOU THAN THE PRESIDENCY) and ask them, WHAT EXACTLY ARE THEY DOING AND PROVIDING FOR YOU?

Because, if they were providing EFFICIENTLY AND FULL ON, YOU WOULDN’T EVEN CARE ABOUT GEJ IN FAR AWAY ABUJA!

Osibisa

You glorify him and associate him with words like, ‘messiah’, which he is not. Rather, he is a 3 times failure. What will now make Nigerians vote for him? What good works or good deeds has he done since the last elections? Why should we no longer REJECT him, as we REJECTED him in 2003, 2007 and 2011? What has IMPROVED about him?

How many schools has he built since his last defeat? What good works has he done? What good things has he said? How many Nigerians has he helped? How has he contributed since 2011 to the development and improvement of Nigeria? Why has he refused to call Boko Haram to order, and tacitly spurs them on?

Has he also acted like a STATESMAN since his last defeat? How many times has he attended the Council of State meeting? YET HE COLLECTS HIS PENSION EVERY MONTH! OLOSHI!

DON

That’s true my brother. He will never rule Nigeria again … day dreaming indeed.

Hastel Idowu.

But Buhari is not contesting any position in 2015,it is very obvious.I don’t know why people waste their time with all these academic exercises based on mere speculation.

APC will not make a mistake by fielding Buhari for any position,not even a Councillor in his ward.He lacks credibility to win election in Nigerian and no party will love to fail by considering him for any elective position.

I will advise that we wait patiently for APC to officially announce their candidates before we decide on the proper grammar to use for or against them.

jamsolong

you damn wrong men. you dont know anything about buhari. go back to your history you will see that there is nobody left in nigeria that can rule the country properly with discinpline except buhari.

Osibisa

If he doesn’t know, I know. Prof Wole Soyinka also knows about him. Google and read up on his article on Buhari titled “The atrocities of Buhari”, and have a happy reading. And come back and argue whether we know him or not!

Osibisa

I SECOND THAT!

VIRGINIA OJI

the north wants to regain power by all means (they vowED) this is one of thier tricks.BE CAREFULL

So all we need is GEJ that has legalised corruption huh? Agatha, have viewed you bouncing your wonderfully gifted weight around punch comment support.
Can we ask:
1. Is your avatar you?
2. Have you got no one to take care of your delicate assests then?
3. Are you looking for offers?
4. Are you a politician?
5. Why GEJ?

Osibisa

NOBODY SAID THAT HE IS ALL WE NEED! But compared to BUHARI, GEJ IS A SAINT AND A BETTER CHOICE ANY DAY! Nigeria does not deserve an ILLITERATE like BUHARI!

Flipping the questions back to you. Are you looking for offers? Are you a politician? Etc?

http://www.facebook.com/agatha.ajayi Agatha Ajayi

Irrelevant questions from people that are confused and disgruntled, why are you panicking if am making mistakes?

Sola

I am sure when jungle mature you will curse the day you thought GEJ is leading you aright. The road GEJ is leading us terminates only at one final stop – SOMALIA. I pray you all put on your thinking cap before it is too late. 2.1Billion Naira went missing from your Mint and you asked no question at all? You think that was just 2.1B? NO; it cost £6 to print each leaf of the 1B of 500NGN notes and £10 for each of the 1.1B of 1000NGN notes. Now do the maths, you lost about 1T Naira there and no one have been arrested? no one fired from their job. You must be a huge joke if you think the country is heading in the right direction. You may have come from very privileged background so it doesn’t matter, but think of the Senate president of Somalia that our Ambassador Olusola saw on the line for food after Somalia went under. You may think you are immuned today, think of Cynthia? The society is broken.

Osibisa

Forget it! It is the Northerners that have tried to take us to SOMALI, but it won’t work. If only you sit back and sheath your bias, and see the Railway lines, the Roads, the Graduate Employment Scheme to improve CAPACITY, the Small Medium Enterprise (to grow businesses and employment), the Unbundling of NEPA (so that it can operate like our Mobile phones), Refurbishment of Refineries, Airports, etc. All of these in just 2 years. And despite all the LANDMINES you lot and the BOKO HARAMS HAVE BEEN PUTTING IN HIS WAY.

COMPARED TO YOUR STATE GOVERNOR, WHAT EXACTLY, HAS YOUR GOVERNOR (who is directly responsible and closer to you) ACHIEVED?

TOBBY777

I can see the level of change Jonathan has brought into our body polity. I can see the re-orientation of using those with corruption cases hanging in their neck in sensitive positions. I can see the change of letting his wife lose. I can see the re-orientation of confusion that is begging to take over the entire land. We dont need a bunch of disgruntled politicians but we certainly dont need some party that sank more than 112 million of us into the ocean of poverty. We dont need a party that rewards criminality. We are tired of a party that is worst off than boko haram. We say no to a pay that mortgated the future of our chiidren as a result of visionlessness. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

Efes

Buhari is a day dreamer, let’s leave him pass!

APC of Nigeria is structured like Islamic Brotherhood of Egypt which is currently wrecking havoc in Egypt.

APC is sympathetic to those who want to make Nigeria an Islamic state. Even moderate Muslims in Nigeria can never cast their votes for APC presidential candidate.

Ay

I do not think you understand what Nigerians want with your views. I am a Christian and do not enjoy when we use religion to deceive. What Nigerians want both Christian and Muslims is good food on their table, education for our children, good house to live in, constant electricity, good roads. We do not care if the leader that can give these is Muslim or Christian. Stop this outcry of Islamic state, do you know the number of Nigerian Christians working and living in Saudi Arabia, Dubai… so stop deceiving us with Islamic state, if you are to choose between living in Kuwait (Islamic state) and Nigeria which will you pick.

Osibisa

You only need to review his antecedents and his utterances!

Henry Onwugbenu

Guy or what every you call yourself, talk well oooooo.

Osibisa

Is that because the APC is bereft of good quality aspirants? Do they have a leadership dearth that they would even contemplate recycling an old man past his used by date and is about 4 decades behind? Nigeria has no room for ILLITERATES and those with 70s technology! Too late for him!

But what exactly do you think he will now do different from 2003, 2007 and 2011, when he was trounced?

ALIYU M.

What efforts have you made to become a leader or president of Nigeria?
Do you expect Nigerians to go to your village and beg you to become their leader without any efforts from you.
You are free to market yourself and if Nigerians are convinced they will choose you as a leader.
You have to start from somewhere otherwise, even at the age of fifty those who are eighty will continue to be your leaders.

Darah

And so, what? Is there expiry date for contesting a post in Nigeria?

kunlestic

silly argument

Olugbenga Arinkoluwa

Jide, Buhari is still the only living Nigerian politician with intergrity why not start campaining for him today. Age has to do with leadership.

Festoo

see how you have disgraced your fathers and fore fathers by saying they didn’t give birth to sincere people. It’s a shame if only 1 man is qualified to rule in a country of over 180million human beings. That is greatly an insult in nigeria. Say rather that of your whole lineage only buhari is able to govern.

Osibisa

Well said, sir!

Bala Haruna

Buhari is no go area for Nigeria come 2015.

Osibisa

Wise man!

Integrity? What does that mean? Read Prof Wole Soyinka’s “Atrocities of Buhari”, and come back and tell us about ‘integrity’! Google Prof WS article!

Agatha,… my mother taught me that people who abuse the aged, never make it to old age. You can make an intelligent contribution without being abusive. In simple logic, you know that your parents are older than you are, which puts them in the bracket of “senile old fools”.

Yes!!! I totally agree with you and the earlier, the better.

ginika okonkwo

Jide, you do not understand the issue at stake. Mugabe just won re-election in Zimbabwe. The issue is, do you want the current spate of corruption to continue in Nigeria? Secondly, do you think your generation has opportunity under the mismanagement of our collective resources by PDP? Do you have people of courage and mettle to reverse the trend? The issue is therefore not about age or whether Buhari has been there before, …it is about a desired change for the better

solo

Simple question to ppl who acused Buhari of this and that.Are u ppl better off now or u need Changes in nigeria politics of today?

Osibisa

We are better off than we could ever be under Buhari! In fact, if YarAdua had not reversed the gains of OBJ, and if Boko Haram and Northerners have not been CARRYING OUT THEIR THREATS of making the country UNGOVERNABLE, Nigeria would have gone very far and would have been on the throes of recovery!

phil

remember he vowed never to contest again if he lost the last election. And he wept when he lost it. Must he rule? there must be something he forgot in Aso rock that he is bent on going to retrieve.

Osibisa

Don’t ever take what he says seriously. He lacks credibility. He made similar vows after 2007 and 2011. It shows his desperation. After losing 3 times already, he is yet to get the message that it is not FLUKE!

Henry Onwugbenu

he has an unfinished business which our grate country and that is to loot us dry, that is what i see.

THAT IS VERY INTERESTING,NIGERIA SUPPOSE NOT TO BE CALLED A COUNTRY,,IT IS A COUNTRY OF TRIBAL,,RELIGIOUS TROUBLES,,LET US JUST DIVIDE AND EVERY TRIBES FOR HIMSELF,,,

Fadi

@Jide,,, Holy moses! Is this not the same Jeneral Buhari who denigerated INEC and called Jega all sort of bad names. He accused Jonathan of corrobrating with INEC and PDP to hinder the registration of APC. Now Buharri should it his words. We now know who is really clueless.

Stan

What has the so called yound men offered? They are even more dangerous/corrupt than the old ones. Safer to be with the Likes of “1 Buhari” than a “thousand GEJ/DAME”. I don’t think Nigeria can survive another divided 4 years again after 2015. The elastic is close to breaking. EVIL IS EVIL

deri

WHAT AN INSULT TO BUHARI-FOR U TO DESCRIBE HIM AS A VETERAN FULANI PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE? HABA ! AGAIN THE MAN HAS NEVER SAID ANYTHING REASONABLE IN HIS LIFE–IT’S ALWAYS THREATS UPON THREATS-LYNCH THIS AND THAT-IT WILL BE LIKE BABOONS AND DOG FIGHT IN 2015-NO SENSIBLE QUOTE FROM HIM

Yemi

@ Deri, what has Buhari said here that is wrong. Sentiment apart, he still remain the most Honest and God fearing leader Nigeria ever has. I am a christian and i prefer him to most of our christian leader even some devil sent pastors. The weapon PDP is using against this man is religion by painting him enemy of christians but this is very wrong bcos Buhari has christians has his domestic workers. pls find out this. His personal Driver and Cook are both christians. If he can employ christian into dis sensitive area of his need i will forever disagree with those that are painting dis man to be a muslim fanatics.

deri

that is not the issue-we have crisis in the fulani north and all he does is to issue threats–how is he sure he will win-when his boss tinubu is in the USA recovering from a surgery buhari is here saying another thing–was he not given money to equip our hospitals

Ide4u

Did Buhari not equip your hospitals during his days as Chairman of PTF better than your uncle president GEJ?

markd

Is that why he has never sent any condolence to any of the Christians killed by boko haram in his so called kingdom of the North?

adewala36

Thanks. People get the government they deserve. I think Nigerians will fling 2015 again for lack of purpose

LONDON BOY

@yemi,will you shut up your mouth,what do you know about buhari,as president candidate what have him said about boko haram,since the killing of innocent people in so call nigeria he love as he said,in UK or USA if such thing happening in the country any candidate have interest,they will join hand together and fight against whatever that against the country,but what have those apc have said since this nonsense…am sorry for people that keep on investing in the north and Yorobas land because I strongly believe one day they will be nothing like so call NIGERIA mark me.

@London Boy, u are so myopic that you couldn’t differentiate between left and right. You are tribalistic and being sentimental. Your countenance showed that you are from South south. What technical know how you have to stand as a country? You had better keep your mouth shut where intellectuals are talking.

kenneth

Don’t say that, we have enough competent people in the south south to stand as a country if the need arises, so don’t underrate others. That is the problem i have with many of your type, you see south south people as nothing in their own country.

Yemi, U are not a xtian. U call a person who can instigate d killing of Youth Corpers, women and children who are non-moslems a God-fearing man? Somebody that was so brutal as a military dictator or somebody that have 90% of directors of the then PTF from one section of d country a most honest and God-fearing man. Oh, I pity Nigeria!

UC SPEAKING

@YEMI SO EMPLOYING COOK AND DRIVER OF CHRISTIAN FAITH IS THE ONLY JUSTIFIABLE REASON IN BUHARI RECORD TO SHOW HIM AS SOMEONE WHO IS TOLERANT OF OTHER FAITH?I FILL SORRY FOR THIS COUNTRY AND THE WAY SOME PEOPLE THINK.HOW ON EARTH DO YOUR BUHARI THINK THAT ONLY COOK AND DRIVER ARE WHAT THE PEOPLE OF OTHER FAITH WORTH.THIS SHOWS WHAT HE[BUHARI] THINKS ABOUT OTHER RELIGION.AND THAT IS WHY THE COMPOSITION OF APC LEADERS ARE 99% MOOSLIM

Buhari

In other words they meant a veteran loser Hahahahah

Buhari’s index finger is more efficient than GEJ’s two hands.

How can the leader of the baboons flush out the PDP….never ever will that happen, in fact each time this dictator opens his mouth, he gives credibility to the PDP and swells up the rank of the party. Buhari and co will not only crumble but will fall like a basin of fufu in a marriage ceremony. How can anyone sane person vote for a man with a born to rule mentality that is preaching against corruption but who has hired and surrounded himself with rouges and dishonest and discredited greedy guys like Bola Tinubu…He can surely rule only in the Sahara Desert but not in any pinch of Nigerian soil…..watch out.

Maybe Buhari meant to say that he hopes that he will win boko haram election. How can a moslem fanatic like buhari who is said to be a General in Boko Haram islamic sect want to rule Nigeria which is a Christian country? Tufiakwa!

ozaluoku

rantings dont win elections,,threat dont win elections..ground work,laid down people-oriented programmes.being a democrat is being tactical and reach ur set goals by getting voters acquainted with ur manifestoes..buhari is becoming a career aspirant..relate more to the masses rather than trash pdp ideology plus ur ethinic and religious colouration which will affect u much more

Both Muslims and Christians are suffering.Nigerians are wiser now!!!!!!!

I appreciate your dilemma my broda Yoroba. APC is a Marriage of Inconvenience
I was never goaded to give kudos to the Jagaban Tinuburuku for holding his own during OBJ Tsunami in the South West. He looked inward to source for revenue with blockade from the Centre. That is the mark of a Successful Politician
My pain is why the same Jagaban will throw in his lot with a Buhari who has only Nassarawa State to his credit and still prepares for the Presidential Ticket ahead of Tinuburuku. Politics is a game of Numbers and Yorobas have it in abundance. OBJ rules because Yorobas were short changed so the Feudal Lords should be patient until they are ready to challenge the hegemony of PDP
Cheers my Yoroba Broda

Good personal opinion because even a candidate of a least popular party can get numerous vote. So its not bad voting the man you like so much with your fake christian emblem all over you. But get it right please and quote any where any time as a christian u claim to be, “Never has or will God ever give what belongs to the Isaac to Ishmael, no matter how stupid Isaac would be”. So let your friends and family vote Buhari and let my own family and friends vote GEJ, and we shall all see what happens come 2015. But remember to tell yourself, family and friends to be open minded and don’t force or kill anyone who do not want to vote for your candidate. May God bless you with wisdom to see better than you can now.

http://www.facebook.com/agatha.ajayi Agatha Ajayi

This same man that you proclaim to be the Messiah is still the same man that promised to make Nigeria an ungovernable country and he would have achieved that if not for the the kind of President we have, but he succeeded in brainwashing people to believe that the present government is weak and clueless and he spread propaganda to buttress his point.

My point is that Buhari is a military man and he is not democratically competent to govern Nigeria in a democratic government. Period!

akara wey sweet

You are wrong.. Majority of Nigerians did not want Buhari as president of Nigeria.. If they wanted him, GEJ cannot be president today..

But at this point in time, I am sorry, but Nigerians are fed-up of GEJ’s administration.. And if Buhari is the only viable alternative.. Yes we will vote for him for that singular reason..

Edu/Stuttsgat

Buhari is still Bad Market Period

First of all you have just misconstrued what i said in my comment, i never said that majority of Nigerians wanted Buhari as President, but since you have mentioned it let me tell you Nigerians will never vote for him even if he is the last choice, we better disintegrate rather vote for him.

Yes i knew from the onset that you are a staunch supporter of ethnic cleansing and pogroms but let me tell you one thing it won’t work i rather vote for Oshiomole the thief than vote for Buhari.

Igbo Kwenu

What are you talking about. What is your scale of reference in judging GEJ? How many presidents and Heads of States in the past has faced what he is facing today? I may not like PDP but that does not remove the fact that THERE ARE SEASONED AND WELL CULTURED PEOPLE IN PDP, take it or leave. As for Buhari, pls lets forget about his candidacy. Even APC will not present him. Bet me!!!

Igbo Kwenu

You have spoken well. Military is military no matter the platform. Whether retired or not. GEJ should be given a chance. No president or head of state in the past has faced difficult times like him. He may not be perfect but time will tell.

We have short memory in Nigeria, the aftermath of the 2011 Presidential election that i believe brought out the real beast in the Northern Warlord, he promised and it is on print that he will make sure that Nigeria is ungovernable. Just immediately after the promise Boko Haram reared their ugly head on defenseless Nigerians.

Well, Jonathan must be seriously worried now, even quaking in his shoes!

Frank

All of you are just a fools, the political ideology in Nigeria is totally different from other countries. If Buhari likes, he should contest election for 100 times in Nigeria, he will not win, mark my word. Nigerian politicians understand the type of person in Buhari.

Am telling the odd would never favour him. Jonathan will still get Majority vote in all the northern state and in the south west. If i may ask all of you, in 2007 and 2011 election in Lagos State, Who gave Fashola victory? the Igbos, the Calabars, the Ijaws, the Housas. without theses people, there is no way ACN would have won election in Lagos. Come 2015, no spirit, seen and unseen, no man born of a woman, nobody, i mean nobody, will stop President Jonathan in winning his second term in office. And if you are not away Nigerian political history, since inception from the era of Shagari to the era of Obasenjo, there is nowhere a seating president will loose election, there is nowhere, its has never happen and it will not happen in Jonathan’s time. The instrument of elections is in the hands of the seating president, so tell me, how would he loose election he contested. Even in the whole of Africa, have you ever heard of a seating president loose election to an opponent? where and who?

May God keep us alive to witness the year 2015, because most of us here may not likely see the year.

He who have an ear, let him hear.

You are not well informed. Of recent the former Zambian president Rupiah Banda lost to his opponent in an election conducted and manipulated by him. What about former Ivorian president Laurent Gbagbo who is now a prisoner with the International Court of Justice. Boy! ever since a smallish shepherd boy David defeated a giantic war champion Goliath with only sling and stone nothing is ever impossible under the sun.

kodjo

where is Donal Duke?

Nigerians are ready to rewrite the history you are talking about, GEJ will loss because 85% of Nigerians are tired of his style of governance. We can not continue like this till 2019. Only the politicians can say things are going on well because of the money they share on daily basis and the SS minority where he hails from, though, some of them are suffering and smiling too. We shall return GEJ to his village come 2015.

I am afraid if Buhari will be APC flag bearer. The man that destroyed a democratically elected government. We should avoid the law of harvest. i.e if Buhari should be elected (his chances r so remote) he will surely harvest what he has sown. Then we all will be back in military rule.
He was invited to dialogue with Boko Haram (His People), He said he’s not the one that caused the problem. So why is he gunning for presidency? He said He want to repair the damaged Nigeria. Are you the one that damaged it? please back off.
Let us not witness the blood of baboon and dog oooo. Enough of blood shed in 9ja

It pains me when I read people’s comments and see how low we have so badly descended in this country. Why do we judge people based on religion, tribe or ethnicity? For all we remember Buhari has been the only leader in the past three decades who has made a meaningful impact in this nation. Be it as head of state or as chair of PTF. No leader living or dead has done what this man has done in the last three decades and we are still looking for a leader. Why don’t try him and give him or Fashola a chance. PDP is the bane of the society and must and should go. I am not really bordered about where the person comes from or what religion, all we need is a palpable change.

LONDON BOY

Please can you change your name from chinyelugo,you answer name that is not yours that is no one criminal offence,what do you know about this man call buhari,can you shut up your mouth please

Mr london fool, tell us what you know about the man called buhari since you know him well. You should shut up your mouth permanently there after. Whether you like it or not the president will emerge from the north in 2015. Guess what. Buhari will defeat GEJ with his desperation to get PDP ticket through his divide and rule tactics.

My concern is about the comment the APC is open to Jonathan wish he wish to leave his Party and join APC, no wonder a man said APC is an extension of PDP or should rather be called PDP2. Na wao for the oppositon so claimed we have in Nigeria

ChinyelugoO

Don’t worry about that mockery! I have said we need an opposition, it doesn’t matter what their constitution is. Sooner or later, nature will take its course and bring us to the desired place.

http://www.facebook.com/agatha.ajayi Agatha Ajayi

PDP as a political party is not the bane of our society, we are the bane of our society, we lynch each other when we discuss trivial matters, we kill each other at a slightest provocation, there is no unity amongst us, we refuse to reason with each other rather we enjoy pogroms.

Our character and attitude towards each other is the bane of our society, united we stand and divided we fall, a war that we fight as one victory is sure.

PDP is the bane of this present day Nigeria Agatha! If you read what I had written before you will agree with me I do not support rivalry, scoffing and stampeding of each other. We are on the same page, we need a total over haul of the mentality and perspective of every true Nigerian for us to be able to forge ahead. But not with the present constitution of the PDP! Its a travesty, just a façade. Its a cancer that needs to be extirpated. Nigeria will not see the light of day with this evil. The earlier the philosophical and ideological revolution starts, the better.

Edu/Stuttsgat

GOC Bokoharmri Buhari is the trouble with Nigeria. He is so power hungry he will call on his Mindless Mass Murderers to spill more blood of Monkeys and Baboons to paint the streets of the north Crimson
The Core North know this hence they shop for a more marketable candidate in person of TY Danjuma

john ola

Thank God you are talking about giving him a chance, that is the same way we are to give GEJ a chance to complete what he has started and stop all this generalization of PDP and believing nothing good can come out of their leadership. With the little he has done,he is making a difference and should be allowed to do more.

jonamustgo

my little experience with nigeria politicians tells me they work very well in their first term, but relax when giving second chance, but with GEJ, we are in the middle of his first term, going to 4yrs if we add yar’adua term with absolutely NOTHING to show for it, even OBJ as evil as he is performed in his first term, not GEJ, he started badly with the ambition of second term the very first day he entered. he should just forget it this time around, time for change.

Feoba

Thank you for being real. everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion but judging and insulting people based on tribe or religion is the worst and the most common i have seen here.
I wish all we learn that we cannot have a better country unless competence and integrity is what we consider before when we cast our votes, not tribe or religion or even political party.

Gaskins

Please list exactly what Buhari achieved in the last 3 decades. Please..

Dr Pat Kolawole Awosan

PDP has attained outright governance failure-F-9 all-rounder in all vital public sector and PDP has ruled Nigeria since 1999 with nothing visible as structures in security,roads,healthcare and industrialization.
There is nothing that PDP leadership of Nigeria since 1999 up to present moment have achieved to move Nigeria forward and put a stop to eradicate corruption practices and revitalize Nigerian industries to create employment generation for the unemployed millions of graduates and youths.
President Jonathan does not understand how to tackle Nigeria vital decaying public infrastructures and rebuild to move the nation forward instead his effective tactics are ethnic/tribal/religion sentiments which he relies upon thinking will guarantee his 2015 re-election without commensurate visible structures in roads,power,healthcare and employment generation initiatives.

LONDON BOY

Pat kolawole,you are talking about 14 years is better than 38 years of north in power,please shut up

Mokundu

2 wrongs do not make a right. That is why individuals should be elected and not their party nor region nor religion. We know some people in this country why not give our future a chance.

I am excited to be a part of Mr. OLu James Omosule’s campaign. I support Mr. OLu James Omosule for President of Nigeria 2015. And know him to be a man who truly understands the needs of businesses in Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt and across Nigeria. Business leaders need a champion in Aso Rock Villa who not only understands their needs, but has a proven record of meeting those needs; and Mr. OLu James Omosule is that person. Join the movement for Change today at www omosuleforpresident com and tell all your friends to do the same. God Bless Nigeria.

I posited yesterday that even if Angelic Eyes were given to the Loquacious Yorobas they will see the transformations going on in the country

Suffice to say that some power hungry Foolanis wanted to create a situation of unrest in some northern parts of the country and their demented youths are receiving the pounding of Multi National Joint Task Force. The youths are actually scattered into the hillsides of Adamawa and some caves in Potiskum.

Since you claim that PDP has improved the economy according to your myopic thinking, answer these questions, if the pdp has improved our healthcare system, why did GEJ’s brother die in Aso Rock, why was Patience flown abroad for treatment, why did Patience’s mother die in a road accident if we have good roads, you are a foool.

Edu/Stuttsgat

Stella Obasanjo did not die in Germany? Musa Yar’Ádua’spent how many months in Saudi, German Hospitals?. They did not die?
Fash the Bash just lost the dad. Is he not the Action Governor of Lagos Mega City. The Healthcare of Action Congress of NIgeria surpassed that of PDP?
You are a bunch of Hypocritical Clown

Babsolu

That shows what a fool you are, to think that things should remain the same because those people died abroad, if all of them has done what they ought to do that would not have happened, God has a way of dealing with leaders who do not have the interest of the people at heart. Why do you think so many industries that has been providing employment for Nigerians are relocating to other countries in Africa, like I said before, you are a BIG FOOOL.

Festoo

sorry, so GEJ’s brother is no longer a human being and will live for ever? Think before you talk. Accidents happen more in Nigeria when the roads are bad than when they are good? then you don’t know your statistics, Nigerians drive more dangerously on good roads than bad ones. Go to Airport road in abuja and you will understand the truth.

Babsolu

Mr, thinker, why did GEJ promise what he cannot do in the first place? I am not holding brief for any political party, but one thing is certain, Nigerians need a change, we are not running a one party state, think of that,by the way do you pray for any member of your family to die of an ailment that could be treated if the govt. invests in healthcare, or die as a result of bad roads?.

14 years better than 38 years, in what ways? Sure you’re living in Nigeria?

Is it 14 years of more earned revenues with nothing to show for it?
14 years of not an additional refinery or petrochemical plant built anywhere but existing ones run aground?
14 years of introduction of kidnapping and terrorism by the violent activities of the PDP north and south of the country?
Isn’t it on record that both MEND and the Boko Haram are creations of the PDP power mongers?
14 years of unprecedented looting of our national resources?
14 years of a lazy and decrepit national assembly that’s rated the most paid in the world with nothing to show for it?
14 years of perfection of rigging as an electoral process?
14 years of no replication of 3rd mainland bridge anywhere else in the country?
14 years of wanton waste and wilderness experience?
14 years of first ladies like Turai and Patience and their insufferable distractions and grab, grab mentality in addition to their husbands?

Need I say more?

And as the government of Nigeria is not building new refineries so that I don’t mismanage them, perhaps as the petroleum minister of Nigeria in the last 14 years, is the money being saved for you and your future generation or being looted in the name of subsidy?

And please also what does deregulation of the oil sector mean to you, since that is the newfound solution to Nigeria’s protracted problem of greed induced corruption just like SAP of the Babangida days?

I was never a fan of Buhari especially his history in the Nigerian government, but from all indications.. I seem to be falling in love with this man..

Nigeria as a country has consumed too much “ogogoro” in the last few years, under the leadership of John the “sapele water baptist” and Jesus Christ of Okrika…

Nigeria needs to sober up, and garner some discipline and direction… Buhari we are watching..

ohaegbulem

Caiaphas, the High Priest, once handed down a generational curse on his children’s children. A very big, bad curse, for it concerned the blood of the Son of the Most High, THE ETERNAL CREATOR HIMSELF,GOD. Caiaphas hated the TRUTH WHICH came in the person of CHRIST for the work of spiritual and social cleansing, and to anchor freedom on earth for mankind’s salvation and union with their CREATOR. Those who hate the extended work of CHRIST in Gen Buhari might bear the Caiaphas curse. Some Nigerian tribes have historical claims of origin from the middle east. Others are so tormented by the curse that even now they brazenly display the effects by their “blood of Jesus” “holy ghost fire”. CHRIST once chased the money changers in the synagogue. Today Gen Buhari is prepared to chase the embezzlers, subsidy crooks, pension fraudsters etc Buhari-hatred is a mark of the beast, and a confirmation of the curse of Caiaphas.

Innocent

Majority of people that live in Nigeria dont want things to be fixed for now. Some will be clamouring for a young person, young person that can not face the old leaders, Buhari can face anybody in this country and ask the person to account. This is why all politicians that stole Nigerian money work round the clock to ensure he did not get there, only few Nigerian think along this direction. A PhD holder and a young person is there now, corruption is at the peak because he is also corrupt, above all, he dont have good advisers, he ought to have reshuffled the cabinet, but he just dont know what to do. How can people like Wike still remain as minister? A professional thug. The day GEJ appointed Salisu Buhari as a member of governing council, it was then i concluded GEJ did not have what is required to rule a big and complex country like Nigeria. May God help my country Nigeria.

Saying Dtruth

The only thing Nigerians need to do if possible is to vote him out so that he should go and have rest, no too much talk on this. I was in my teen age when this dictators Buhari ruled Nigeria he couldn’t provide common electricity which the Asian people thought is a natural thing in their place because an Asian man who is about 60 years of age now never in his life know that people can stay without electricity, Buhari failed to do this thing for us then and things were very easy and cheap, please OGA, is better you go and rest and remain n elderly state’s man, it will be better for you, no any chance for you again because you have disappointed us before and twice beaten is a fool so, we are not fools bye bye.

It is only somebody that is not corrupt that can fight corruption, the only former head of state who did not have a land or own a house in Abuja.

Our opinions are a product of the information we have.All I want is a leader who would treat Nigerians the way he would treat himself;with love and care,irrespective of the party,religious beliefs and ethnicity.I don’t know who fits such a role but would like to find out from such an individual,not his party.I think we’ve had enough of party politics.Lets vote for aspirants irrespective of the party.

When Buhari was a head of State under military regime what did he do to this country?

Innocent

Ask a reasonable question, coup that removed Buhari from power in 1985 is responsible for the mess we are experiencing today. The simple truth is that he is not corrupt!

Abiodun Adeniran

That was a perfect answer. One can not stop imagining what Nigeria would have become if the evil IBB did not take over that government? Drug pushers, armed robbery, corruption, public service indiscipline taken off the circulation. Infact IBB set Nigeria backward for 100years.

effizzy

Buhari’s military govt was taken over for one simple reason. He failed to realize that one does not fight a huge cartel of corrupt elite using gra-gra. If you chase a dog to a wall, u knw what will happen. If he comes back, he might make the same mistake of using gragra to chase the corrupt elite. This might cost us our democracy.

Abiodun Adeniran

It is not about Buhari my brother. I will always support any candidate that has a good pedigree in anti-corruption, intelligent, decisive, fearless, had a successful career before coming into politics, ready to declare all his assets before and after office, loves all Nigerians equally and will be ready to do justice for ALL Nigerians no matter what is at stake.

metucellar

Abiodun IF APC is sincere with themselves let them choose rochas okorocha as their presidential candidate, then nigerians will take them serious, as far as i am concern is a party of the rich and muslims, we can see the hand writing on the wall, take a case study of what happen in lagos of recent and how the lagos state govt has be milking it citizens all in the name of building mega city which the federal govt has already build since 1906 because it was the former capital of nigeria it was built with other state of the federations money every region contributed their own quota to build lagos but what the current state govt is doing now is creating night mare to lagosians.

Awojobi Olakunle

Esther you were too young to know what Buhari did as head of state may be you should ask your seniors

Abiodun Adeniran

The man Gen Buhari, nobody has been able to accuse him of corruption notwithstanding all the high profile positions he has held in the country. Even, OBJ said it recently that the man is not corrupt. IBB who jailed Professor Tam David West on the flimsy allegation of receiving a wristwatch bribe would have dealt with Buhari if he (IBB) was able to find any corruption evidence against him. The only thing that people have found against this man Buhari is deep ethnicity and religious prejudices. If this man can successfully defend himself against all these allegations, he will be very good to bring sanity to Nigeria. Nevertheless, there are some of supposed critics of Buhari who are only criminals and therefore they will not even want the name of this man mentioned at all simply because they know that his emergence will terminate their criminal activities. As far as I know in the history of public service in Nigeria’s recent times, Buhari, Ribadu, Dora Akunyili have no equal. I am not ashamed to say this as a Yoruba man. I am proud of them. They may have their weaknesses, that is why they are human beings afterall.
If the country must truly move forward, we must set aside religion, ethnicity, tribalism and go for the best. If it is impossible for us as a nation to go for the best, then I will prefer that every region/zone take charge of its destiny instead of having a dummy or robot at the centre. Even if we want to zone the Presidency to a particular zone, then let that zone give us its very best not a nonentity, unintelligent, indecisive, unproductive and unprofitable person. For how long shall we continue to wait for a better day if we don’t start the process NOW?

ayobami

wat is ur definition of corruption,u said a man who cannot refute/resolve d riddle behind d 53 suite cases is not corrupt,how can u say a man who defended d most corrupt regime is not corrupt,a man who disclaimed odumakin’s expose on d massive corruption in lagos(1km of road awarded for N1bn) can never be said to be upright.

Abiodun Adeniran

Thank you for being very civil in your rejoinder to my comment. The so-called 53 suite cases is like one of the tale by moonlight stories. Did they say the found money in those suite cases when they opened them and that the money was for Buhari? If we equate every rumour to an accusation, then all human beings would have been jailed by now. The fact that some stories are being spread does not make such an accusation as long as there are no substance to back up such stories. People can sit down in their home and concoct stories against you, that do not make it an accusation if they can back it up with evidence. It is called an ‘Idle Talk’. You can obviously fault that man on some other grounds but CERTAINLY not corruption. I remember that I have read the genesis of that rumour in a newspaper interview, it was about one of Buhari’s aide whose father was an Emir and the Emir had many wives and children, they were all coming back from Saudi Arabia (or somewhere) and they the press saw that they had so many suit cases and concluded that those were Buhari’s! Do not forget that Buhari-Idiagbon government was very hostile to the Press and the evil IBB was already planning his self-preservation coup as at that time. So I believe the entire story was the handwork of a fifth columnist. Thank you.

Ahijo

You have contradicted your own submission, You said “the only thing people have found against this man Buhari is deep ethnicity and religious prejudices” Then you later said “if the country must truly move forward, we must set aside religion, ethnicity, tribalism and go for the best”. You have effectively ruled out Buhari by your own submission, even though you say he has “no equal”

Abiodun Adeniran

I did not contradict myself. When I said no equal, my assessment is ONLY in the area of anti-corruption and probity. Nothing more than that
factor. So I am not saying Buhari, Ribadu, Dora Akunliyi have no equal when OTHER factors are taken into consideration. I did also state concerning Buhari “If this man can successfully defend himself against all these allegations, he will be very good to bring sanity to Nigeria”.
If you therefore read my statement in the full context, you will see that there is no contradiction at all.

Punch Punch

I like the way u respond to issues on this forum, but u should
understand that Buhari is too Islamic than Muhammed himself to rule this
country. The fact that he is a fanatic makes him unfit for that
sensitive position. How can people like u forget in a hurry the
insensitive and wicked utterances of this man during the 1999/2000
sharia crisis that withnessed the killing of christians most of whom
were of southern origin. How can u, Abiodun forget in a hurry the role
he played in the barbaric killing of our youth corpers whose offense was
that they were serving their father land in the north. Have u forgotten
than it was his utterances that led to the killings by his faithfuls,
and ever since the barbaric act was committed against these innocent
souls some of whom would have become the breadwinners of their
respective families today, this wicked creature being regarded as one of
the statemen in this country has stubornly refused to apologised to
Nigerians, especially, the families that lost their dear one in those
senseless and wicked bloodshed.
Furthermore, recently he issued
another threat(Monkey & Baboon BLOOD) which has been heating up the
polity this this very day. So, this is the man u are trying to sell to
Nigerians as a worthy candidate for that sensitive position. My dear, if
u truly cherish the unity of this country, Buhari should be the last
man to come to ur mind as the suitable candidate for presidency because:
1 He is very wicked and heartless
2 He is a religious fanatic and tribal bigot

3 He is on a revenge mission(based on his previous utterances)
4 He is a sectional leader(Nigeria needs a national leader)
5 He delights in bloodshed(remember monkey & baboon blood threat)
6 He has corrupt cases to answer including his PTF shoddy deals
7 He is too desperate for power(remember Macbeth by William Shakespare)

My conclusion: Buhari is too dangerous to become the president of this country.

Abiodun Adeniran

Thank you for your thought. I love to engage in intelligent and intectual arguments because it makes you to learn more.
You know I added a caveat to my endorsement thus “If this man can successfully defend himself against all these allegations, he will be very good to bring sanity to Nigeria”. So if he is not able to successfully defend himself against all the allegations of deep ethnic and religious prejudices, then my own reckoning, he has failed my test. I also remember when during the regime of Lam Adeshina in Oyo State when there was a crisis between the Yorubas and some Fulani herdsmen; all Gen Buhari would say is issuing ultimate to the poor Governor if he did not stop harassing “my people”. I also detest the way the metro line project was stopped in Lagos State by his administration. Now, I know that that would have greatly eased the transportation and traffic problem in Lagos by today if that project had been allowed to stay. People adduce ethnicity to the cancellation. His initial silence at the commencement of the senseless killings after the 2011 elections is also a big suspect. I did part of my NYSC in Yobe State in 1993/94; so assuming it was now, then I could have also been a victim of that senseless killings. Nevertheless, all these are allegations against him, if he can defend himself against all these allegations to the satisfaction of right thinking and well meaning Nigerians, then he has scaled the hurdle. If however, he can not satisfactorily explain all these actions, then notwithstanding his anti-corruption posture, it will be dangerous to entrust the destiny a volatile and tribally and religiously divided Nigeria into his hand. He can still be useful in some other capacity though but not the Presidency.

Fielding Buhari as the ACP presidential candidate will be their undoing. The better put sentiment, tribalism, religiosity and godfatherism out and choose someone that will have wide acceptability if they hope to make any strong chance against the PDP evil machinery.

Precious and Esther Gabriel you must be a fake christians to think that a muslim president can turn Nigeria into Islamic state,do you think a christian can win presidential election in Nigeria without the votes of muslims? The issue at hand is how to fight corruption and rule with passion for development of Nigeria and Buhari is one million better than Jonathan who does not give a damn.

Even with all of these rhetoric I don’t think the APC would be any different to the ruling PDP as such, as the APC are not an alternative due to the very that fact they still completely don’t get the point that they lack innovation, plus the younger generations of Nigerians are still completely being excluded out of Nigerian Politics. Furthermore, the current Nigerian politician of all parties who are all in the 70s, 80+ have failed immensely to invest in the innovative abilities of the younger generation who are more informed and eloquent to seek a better solution to the Nigerian issues, and the are still continuing to fail the younger Nigerians. There was once a time in Nigeria when the young were told that they were the leaders of tomorrow, however today is the old who continue to cling to power by all mean necessary still see themselves as the leaders of tomorrow at age 70 to 100. This Big Belly or Big Man Politics has to stop as Nigeria is now the biggest joke of all Nations on earth and does no longer deserves the dignity of a sovereign State.

it seems the only problem of the newly registered APC is to push PDP away and then ………..nothing!. They have not told us what they will be doing differently and how.

TRUTH MASTER

They have started telling us. May be you have not been listening. Go and read the paper presented by one of the party’s leaders (Asiwaju) in London recently. It outlined the party’s programmes in a broad sense.

Remember also that this party is not even two weeks old. So let’s wait and see how it will elaborate on the general outline that I mentioned.

MY SYMPATHY GOES TO GEN. BUHARI, ONE OF THE VERY RARE HONEST NIGERIANS, FOR AT THE END OF THE DAY, GEN. BUHARI WILL PAINFULLY DISCOVER THAT HE HAS BEEN USED AND DUMPED. THE REASON IS SIMPLE. SOME OF THE HUGELY AND VASTLY CORRUPT NIGERIANS ARE MASSIVELY IN APC. THEY ARE MORBIDLY AFRAID THAT GEN. BUHARI, IF GIVEN POWER, WILL EQUALLY GO AFTER THEM WHILST BRINGING CORRUPT NIGERIANS TO JUSTICE. THEY HAVE SECRETLY BEEN GOING ABOUT SEARCHING FOR AN ALTERNATIVE, MALLEABLE CANDIDATE IN WHOSE HAND THEY WILL FIND SAFETY. IN THE DAYS AHEAD, THEY WILL SPONSOR TRIBAL AND RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS AGAINST GEN. BUHARI WITHIN AND OUTSIDE APC JUST TO ENSUE THAT BUHARI DOES NOT PICK THE APC TICKET. I WAIT TO BE PROVED WRONG.

Presidential ticket will tear them apart. Too many cooks spoil the broth

TOBBY777

The APC primaries will send a positive or negative message to Nigerians. If I were one of the strategists of APC, I will nominate an Igbo person as the Presidential Candidate of the party and his running mate will be an Hausa man from the middle belt both candidates must be without baggage. This master stroke will send the pdp to the great beyond come 2015.

The APC can still work on winning more states and more members in the national assembly. Imagine the pdp as a minority party in our national assembly. The government will be force to sit up.

Nigerians have tested the pdp and the pdp have failed us woefully. For the past 14 years, the pdp have sold off all our national heritages. Before 1999 our leaders steal millions of Naira but pdp has introduced another angle to it, people no longer steal millions but billions. Our roads are not better off since 1999. Our schools have not improved for the past 14 years. Our health care delivery system in still in stone age settings, the standard of living is depreciating daily. Some 112 million Nigerians have sank deeper in the ocean of poverty. Nigeria is becoming one of the most unsecured nation on planet earth. We are blessed with militancy in the south, kidnappers in the east, armed robbery in the west and terrorism in the north, these are some of the dividends of the pdp 14 years.

The calibre of people we elect should be given a consideration. Who are those we are going to elect to represent us? When farouk was arrested, The national assembly members from his state paid him a solidarity visit in prison. When Senator Ndume was accused of giving out classified informations to boko haram, Our senators irrespective of party affiliation stood by him and even issued a statement saying they stood by him, All our parties are involved in the jumbo pay. They are also involved in the fraud known as constituency projects money. Nigerians must elect the best. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

I pray for long life to enable us see 2019. I am not really interested were the president of this Country comes from. I am only interested in the man that give us at least 18 hours power supply, a man that can tame the insecurity that is begging to tear this Country apart, a man that will build confidence in our education and health system, a man that will look at our national thieves we call assembly members and reduce their salaries, a man that will be ready to restructure Nigeria along regional lines, a man that that will give us back our pride as a nation and people, a man that will hurt the deaths associated to our roads by making them motorable. Buhari is still a million times better than anything the pdp has inflicted us with for the past 14 years. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

Tobby777. Today you have derailed. Go and read IBB’s announcement of 1984 coup that overthrew coupist Buhari and see if there had been any significant change. I always read your post but today ‘you fall my hand’. The problem of Nigeria is not that of political party but individuals. If it was political party, we would not have the likes of Akpabio, Fashola, Chima, Oshomole in opposite political parties. I agree with you that Nigeria must elect the best, but i must tell you that if you are familiar with the political development of Nigeria, the best so far is GEJ. I still see you from the positive angle because you tactfully avoided voicing any support for Buhari in his weird and failing dreams to be Nigeria’s president.

TOBBY777

You are attributing the problems in our political settings to individuals and not political parties. The question is, who make up these parties? Individuals. Parties are supposed to be an organisation of people of like minds with common ideology but what we have in Nigeria is a gathering of like minded thieves whose only aim is to enslave the Nigeria people.

Imagine those names you mentioned in political parties that have the interest of the people at heart? Imagine them in a system that render accounts to the people and not some godfathers and tiny gods? When you take stock of those persons, how much they receive monthly and the level of development we are seeing in them, they are complete failures.

You mean to tell me that out of the 167 million of us living on planet earth, JOnathan is the best for that position. I totally disagree with that statement sir. If jonathan was a private citizen like Prof, Pat Utomi would you have been on this page? As for my falling your hand, I am sorry if i did not meet your expectations today. I still stand by my comment sir. TODAY IS YESTERDAY’S TOMORROW.

APC should be ready for the Zimbabwean treatment by the PDP. Buhari or whoever the Presidential candidate will be should be ready to step into Tsvangarai shoes and begin a long walk to the Nigerian court of injustice. There will be blood but that’s nothing new. A bruiser is a loser.

True talk General and is a mission accomplished come 2015 when you General Buhari will be elected President of Nigeria by God’s grace.16 years of PDP would have ended as a complete waste with incompetent,visionless,passionless and clueless Jonathan losing the election woefully

Edu/Stuttsgat

If wishes were Horses Buhari will be seated on the Glory Seat of Aso Villa

Awojobi Olakunle

Like Edwin Clarke and Asari Dokubo and co want us to believe that Nigeria will come to an end if their incompetent son is not re- elected

john ola

He is out to deceive the few of your likes that can be deceived,just imagine him talking as if he doesn’t really want to be there, saying is his party that would determine if he runs for the seat or not. Please.

Awojobi Olakunle

Just like PDP and Jonathan have been deceiving you since 1999

Kaze A

A product of half-baked education and tribalism like you can never have the brain to think well. Why not get your grandfather to come and rule your country in 2015. I pray the Arewa Congress People presents fundamentalist Buhari in 2015 against Nigeria’s GEJ and see the fundamentalist cry to his grave finally.

WHAT THE PDP SHOULD DO WITH ANAMBRA.

The PDP should realize that ANAMBRA people, especially the youths are sick and tired of all these recycled political jobbers vying to be Governor of the state. If the PDP is indeed serious about winning the forthcoming polls, then the party should take a real deep look at the youngest and freshest contender of the group, ENYIOHA UGOCHUKWU OKEKE aka Taiwo. He has caught the attention and imagination of Anambra people more than any other individual in the group. The general feeling on ground right now is that Anambra will be better off with this young man running the affairs of the state, as he has youth, freshness, vigor, accessibility, intellect, and class going for him. If the PDP fronts this youthful ENYIOHA UGOCHUKWU OKEKE as its candidate for the November elections, then the party may as well begin to celebrate victory prior, as no other candidate from any of the rival parties can withstand the force and buzz of ENYIOHAMANIA, currently sweeping through the communities in Anambra State. WORD!

PDP is a failure yet APC are wooing its members to APC. That means wrestling power from PDP is your agenda. You people needs power at all cost. That was why you created the problem of Boko Haram.

If you haven’t noticed APC is made up of disgruntled PDP members and recycled senile old rouges, there is no headway for them come 2015 and the fact remains that there is no alliance in Nigeria that has actually stood the test of time.

I have just one question: Why did INEC not extend the same leverage it accorded Buhari and his group to the Fisrt APC that applied for registration? After all their crime was that they did not list all the names of their executives. Same as the now registered APC. Do we still believe that we are all equal in this country?

The international criminal court is asking the federal government for permission to prosecute the boko haram extremist,which nigeria is a signatory to,but fuuny enough an Anglican Cleric has Ask the FG not to handover the boko haram extremist to the international criminal court.we all know what will happen when the ICC takes over,a lot of truth will be reveal.any effort to go against ICC by the federal government as already being propel by christian cleric will simply show that they want the truth to be known.

Apartheid Peoples Congress APC. The will give new lease of life that will benefit only few , that the Tinubus, the Buharis,etc. They will increase school fees 200% as done in LASU so that it is only their children that will be going to school. They will divide federal roads into three, two third will be for their buses so that they will make huge money while other road users will be groaning on traffic gridlock. Each state will have two toll gates within it and impose multiple tax to citizens. Indeed they will push out PDP. Let them present their manifestos to Nigerians and then allow us to decide who to vote for. let them stop boasting lest what to Chief Ikedi Ohakim on the eve of 2011 gubernatorial election happen to them.

A leopard cannot Change its skin. This same APC people were in PDP! They even want more PDP governors to join them! Akande the chairman just invited Jonathan to join! If APC thinks PDP is a failure why are they so desperate to recruit PDP leaders? In Nigeria there is ideological party- they all think the same. We are all desperate for Nigeria to take its rightful place in the comity of nations but don’t realize democracy is evolutionary. In the first 50 years of US democracy there were corrupt governors like we have today in Nigeria! PDP has the unfortunate disadvantage of being the pioneering ruling party. Any other party in their shoes would not have faired better particularly since we don’t have ideological party system. While the emergence of APC is welcomed they will make their own mistakes as well. If they field Buhari they will fail! Buhari does not have ‘people’s skills’. A dictator to the core. Dictators don’t do well in democratic settings. If APC field Muslim- Muslim ticket they will equally fail! BH has polarized us too deep for Abiola-Kingibe type of victory to be repeated. For me the devil you know is better than the one you don’t know.

Text of General Ibrahim Babangida’s Coup Speech
August 27 , 1985
Fellow Nigerians,
When in December 1983, the former
military leadership, headed by Major-General Muhammadu Buhari, assumed
the reins of government, its accession was heralded in the history of
this country. With the nation at the mercy of political misdirection and
on the brink of economic collapse, a new sense of hope was created in
the minds of every Nigerian.
Since January 1984, however, we have
witnessed a systematic denigration of that hope. It was stated then that
mismanagement of political leadership and a general deterioration in
the standard of living, which had subjected the common man to
intolerable suffering, were the reasons for the intervention.
Nigerians have since then been under a
regime that continued with those trends. Events today indicate that most
of the reasons which justified the military takeover of government from
the civilians still persist.
The initial objectives were betrayed and
fundamental changes do not appear on the horizon. Because the present
state of uncertainty, suppression and stagnation resulted from the
perpetration of a small group, the Nigerian Armed Forces could not as a
part of that government be unfairly committed to take responsibility for
failure. Our dedication to the cause of ensuring that our nation
remains a united entity worthy of respect and capable of functioning as a
viable and credible part of the international community dictated the
need to arrest the situation.
Let me at this point attempt to make you
understand the premise upon which it became necessary to change the
leadership. The principles of discussions, consultation and co-operation
which should have guided decision-making process of the Supreme
Military Council and the Federal Executive Council were disregarded soon
after the government settled down in 1984. Where some of us thought it
appropriate to give a little more time, anticipating a conducive
atmosphere that would develop, in which affairs of state could be
attended to with greater sense of responsibility, it became increasingly
clear that such expectations could not be fulfilled.
Regrettably, it turned out that
Major-General Muhammadu Buhari was too rigid and uncompromising in his
attitudes to issues of national significance. Efforts to make him
understand that a diverse polity like Nigeria required recognition and
appreciation of differences in both cultural and individual perceptions,
only served to aggravate these attitudes.
Major-General Tunde Idiagbon was
similarly inclined in that respect. As Chief of Staff, Supreme
Headquarters, he failed to exhibit the appropriate disposition demanded
by his position. He arrogated to himself absolute knowledge of problems
and solutions, and acted in accordance with what was convenient to him,
using the machinery of government as his tool.
A combination of these characteristics
in the two most important persons holding the nation’s vital offices
became impossible to content with. The situation was made worse by a
number of other government functionaries and organisations, chief among
which is the Nigerian Security Organisation (NSO). In fact, this body
will be overhauled and re-organized.
And so it came to be that the same
government which received the tumultuous welcome now became alienated
from the people. To prevent a complete erosion of our given mandate
therefore, we had to act so that hope may be rebuilt.
Let me now address your attention to the
major issues that confront us, so that we may, as one people, chart a
future direction for our dear country. We do not pretend to have all the
answers to the questions which our present problems have put before our
nation. We have come with the strongest determination to create an
atmosphere in which positive efforts shall be given the necessary
support for lasting solutions.
For matters of the moment which require
immediate resolutions, we intend to pursue a determined programme of
action. Major issues falling into this category have been identified and
decisions taken on what should be done.
Firstly, the issue of political
detainees or convicts of special military tribunals. The history of our
nation had never recorded the degree of indiscipline and corruption as
in the period between October 1979 and December 1983.
While this government recognises the
bitterness created by the irresponsible excesses of the politicians, we
consider it unfortunate that methods of such nature as to cause more
bitterness were applied to deal with past misdeeds. We must never allow
ourselves to lose our sense of natural justice. The innocent cannot
suffer the crimes of the guilty. The guilty should be punished only as a
lesson for the future. In line with this government’s intention to
uphold fundamental human rights, the issue of detainees will be looked
into with dispatch.
As we do not intend to lead a country
where individuals are under the fear of expressing themselves, the
Public Officers Protection Against False Accusation Decree 4 of 1984 is
hereby repealed. And finally, those who have been in detention under
this decree are hereby unconditionally released. The responsibility of
the media to disseminate information shall be exercised without undue
hindrance. In that process, those responsible are expected to be
forthright and to have the nation’s interest as their primary
consideration.
The issue of decrees has generated a lot of controversies. It is the intention of this government to review all other decrees.
The last twenty months have not
witnessed any significant changes in the national economy. Contrary to
expectations, we have so far been subjected to a steady deterioration in
the general standard of living; and intolerable suffering by the
ordinary Nigerians have risen higher, scarcity of commodities has
increased, hospitals still remain mere consulting clinics, while
educational institutions are on the brink of decay. Unemployment has
stretched to critical dimensions.
Due to the stalemate, which arose in
negotiation with the International Monetary Fund, the former government
embarked on a series of counter-trade agreements. Under the
counter-trade agreements, Nigerians were forced to buy goods and
commodities at higher prices than obtained in the international market.
The government intends to review the whole issue of counter-trade.
A lot has been said and heard about our
position with the International Monetary Fund. Although we formally
applied to the fund in April 1983, no progress has as yet been made in
the negotiation and a stalemate has existed for the last two years.
We shall break the deadlock that
frustrated the negotiations with a view to evaluating more objectively
both the negative and positive implications of reaching a mutual
agreement with the Fund. At all times in the course of discussions, our
representatives will be guided by the feelings and aspirations of the
Nigerian people.
It is the view of this government that
austerity without structural adjustment is not the solution to our
economic predicament. The present situation whereby 44 per cent of our
revenue earning is utilized to service debts is not realistic. To
protect the danger this poses to the poor and the needy in our society,
steps will be taken to ensure comprehensive strategy of economic
reforms.
The crux of our economic problems has been identified to centre around four fundamental issues:
1. A decrease of our domestic production, while our population continues to increase.
2. Dependence on import for both consumer goods and raw materials for our industries.
3. A grossly unequal gap between the rich and the poor.
4. The large role played by the public sector in economic activity with hardly any concrete results to justify such a role.
These are the problems we must confront.
ON FOREIGN POLICY:
Nigeria’s foreign policy in the last 20
months has been characterised by inconsistency and incoherence. It has
lacked the clarity to make us know where we stood on matters of
international concern to enable other countries relate to us with
seriousness. Our role as Africa’s spokesman has diminished because we
have been unable to maintain the respect of African countries.

The ousted military government conducted
our external relations by a policy of retaliatory reactions. Nigeria
became a country that has reacted to given situations, rather than
taking the initiative as it should and always been done. More so,
vengeful considerations must not be the basis of our diplomacy. African
problems and their solutions should constitute the premise of our
foreign policy.

The realisation of the Organisation of
African Unity of the Lagos Plan of Action for self-sufficiency and
constructive co-operation in Africa shall be our primary pursuit.

The Economic Community of West African
States must be reborn with the view to achieving the objective of
regional integration. The problems of drought-stricken areas of Africa
will be given more attention and sympathy, and our best efforts will be
made to assist in their rehabilitation within the limits of our
resources. Our membership of the United Nations Organisation will be
made more practical and meaningful. The call for a new International
Economic Order which lost its momentum in the face of the debt crisis
will be made once again.

Nigeria hereby makes a renewed request
to the Non-Aligned Movement to regroup and reinvigorate its
determination to restructure the global economic system, while we appeal
to the industrialized nations to positively consider the debt plight of
the developing countries and assist in dealing with the dangers that
face us. We shall remain members of the various multilateral
institutions and inter-governmental organisations which we belong to and
do what must be done to enhance the membership and participation within
them.

Fellow Nigerians, this country has had
since independence a history mixed with turbulence and fortune. We have
witnessed our rise to greatness, followed with a decline to the state of
a bewildered nation. Our human potentials have been neglected, our
natural resources put to waste. A phenomenon of constant insecurity and
overbearing uncertainty has become characteristic of our national
existence.

My colleagues and I are determined to
change the course of history. This government is determined to unite
this country. We shall not allow anything to obstruct us. We recognise
that a government, be it civilian or military, needs the consent of the
people to govern if it is to reach its objective. We do not intend to
rule by force. At the same time, we should not be expected to submit to
unreasonable demands. Fundamental rights and civil liberties will be
respected, but their exercise must not degenerate into irrational
expression nor border on subversion.

The War Against Indiscipline will
continue, but this time, in the minds and conduct of Nigerians, and not
by way of symbolism or money-spending campaigns.

This government, on its part, will
ensure that the leadership exhibits proper example. Criticisms of
actions and decisions taken by us will be given necessary attention and
where necessary changes made in accordance with what is expected of us.

Let me reiterate what we said in 1984:
This generation of Nigerians and indeed future generations have no other
country but Nigeria. We must all stay and salvage it together. This
time it shall be pursued with deeper commitment and genuine sincerity.

There is a lot of work to be done by
every single Nigerian. Let us all dedicate ourselves to the cause of
building a strong, united and viable nation for the sake of our own
lives and the benefits of posterity.

Finally, I wish to commend the members of the Armed Forces and the Nigeria Police for their mature conduct during the change.

I thank you all for your co-operation and understanding.

God bless Nigeria.

PDP is a total failure, 14 years of fake and unrealistic governance, PDP clamoring that they have Nigerians at heart, in what ways? OKEKE, keep quite, let Nigerians decide

PDP are blood suckers. We need a change vote APC come 2015

i will never vote buhari because is part of our political backwardness.He should allow our democratic experiment during president Shagari government. maybe by now we would have gotten it right.

Edo man

Lets not dwell in the past APC is not just made up of buhari alone, I believe they will deliver. We need a change.

alf

In as much as he is thanking INEC, he should mostly thank GEJ the president, because if he had behaved like others, this party will not have been registered and the heavens will not fall! I have always said there is something about this man GEJ, from his behaviour during the yardua saga, to his composture during the boko saga; this man GEJ behaves as if he did not grow up in nigeria, where, ‘before you come and take the chop spoon from my mouth, I shall surely decimate and eliminate you’, and for some folks that like painting someone black cos of there ignorance and interests,read in between the lines; I am quoting what the general said! “If INEC wanted to be wicked, they could have kept mute and just sent us a letter that our application was not complete. They could have done that. But for them to send us an observation which was later corrected, I believe they have been very impartial and we thank them for that.” Same INEC that rigged the last election is same that is impartial cos it has favored him, I hope we will not notice another loss of innocent lifes if it is the other way round!

my brother if Buhari was the current president of Nigeria i doubt if he will allow another party capable of wrestling power from to be registered.
not to talk of allowing punch as a news media to continue its publication with all the insult in this medium.

“The APC is a party of despots, dictators who love to impose candidates on the people. Nigerians are tired of such people.”
The statement above is from pdp spokesman.what will he say about amaechi step down so jang can be Nigerian governors forum chairman just to mention one.

These pdp political criminals still think Nigerians are not socially aware of what’s happening having grounded the education system for several years with minimum wage of 18k been negotiated year in year out.The tide that will sweep away pdp is finally building up.Thank God for research in motion,iphones and samsung galaxy.To get any information it’s one click away.Nigerians are getting smarter and impossible to enslave.Anyone who wishes to lead must deliver on electoral promises and not think they can make their opponent look bad after four years in the presidency with virtually nothing to show for it.

APC or no APC, we are tired of the failure called GEJ. we must push him out at all cost by 2015. Jona is a muku who can rule his home talk-less of a country. He should go back to his bayesa to resume his usual ogogoro drinking

All political parties in Nigeria have failed we are tired of their lies, they only lust after power and don’t have the interest of Nigerians at heart. once they assumed office, they squandered the wealth of
this nation with their family and friends.God,heal our land and give us a true leader.

metucellar

PDP under GEJ administration has done well compare to OBJ days in power, though i am not an apostle of PDP but nigerians have not seeing it in reality but with time the transformation agenda of this govt will put smile on nigerians, as for APC they don’t have anything good in stock for nigerians they are already a working corpse waiting to be buried in 2015 if nigeria will still remain as one entity.

Kaze A

My wish is that APC lives to present Buhari in 2015 against GEJ. If APC has any genuine agenda for Nigeria, aside from wrestling power from PDP and returning the presidency to the Hausa/Fulani oligarchs, i expect them to cross the lines and present a true Nigerian for all to judge in 2015. For now, GEJ is working though tribalism and religious fundamentalism have blinded some people especially the islamists.
By 2015 we shall start a fresh campaign for Buhari 2019 after GEJ might have sent him crying again in 2015, if APC is so naive to present the bigot.

Shine1177

Anger & Pain Contraption (APC) lord day-dreaming.

FORFAKA

Recently in London Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari told his audience that his new APC

party is opposed to the followings: (1) Restructuring Nigeria according to our Geo-

political Zones ,(2)Resource Control and(3) the Convention of Sovereign National

Conference.
The Fulani Alhaji and his party members want therefore to maintain the status quo in
which his Hausa/Fulani muslims are running a parallel Islamic Republic with
sharia within our Secular Commonwealth and control our oil resources.His Hausa/ Fulani folks control 83% of our oil blocs and 95% of our oil marketing.

A survey of Buhari’s party shows that it is virtually an Islamic party which members
have no issues with the Boko Haram terrorists,who they equate with the N’Delta
militants.The Alhaji and his party members call the imposition of State of Emergency

in the Boko Haram infested North East as an invasion of his muslim North.
That the Lagos State Government run by an APC Governor is catching Christian

Igbos of the South East and dumping them at the border of Anambra State at night

shows what awaits non-muslim Nigerians should APC take over our Government from the PDP.
Alhaji Bbuhari and his APC party must be stopped.

AZEEZ ADIGU

And they will be stopped by any means necessary.

AZEEZ ADIGU

The idea that Buhari and his cohorts continue to make statements like “Push Out” and spend time and energy concerning themselves with the PDP, it is no wonder they have no agenda for the Nigerian people. The formation of APC was based on a selfish and self-centered idea, all for selfish interest to gain power only for the purpose of serving self and not the Nigerian people. God will purnish all of you, when the time comes.

The old goat should get out of the way, so the next generation can come in to rule this country. Nobody was born with president written on their forehead.

Umah G

I wonder why this man cannot give us a breathing space. Are we in such a sorry state that the likes of Buhari should continue to assault our collective sensibilities? He can serve Nigeria and his community in other ways other than being the president. He should just get busy on something else, and spare us the blood and sorrow that he peddles all about.

Edo Man

You getting it all wrong APC is not just buhari, it made up of North, South, West and East. Please let support APC, we need a change

The change will not be from APC, but from a true and patriotic Nigerian. For now GEJ offers you the best option for that change.

Bisiriyu Olalekan Abdul-Ghany

PDP has failed Nigerians. What GEJ administration is practicing is pure austerity. What can they show us for the 14 years of ruling? All we need now is CHANGE!!!

deri

what did buhari practice during his rule as head of state-was it not the same austerity measures that led to the closure of factories in lagos

COMMON SENSE

Truth be told APC is a welcome development for our young democracy however the composition of the party is the main problem. There is really not much difference from the PDP. In terms of performance the ACN ( now APC) govs have performed better than the PDP govs on average but then GEJ has made some progress in some sectors like Railways, agriculture but more has to be done. The question then is will an APC gov at the centre perform better than GEJ, that I believe is possible if the likes of Fashola, Abike Dabiri, Ashafa, Oshiomole et al are given the chance as the new generation of leaders. We wait and see what APC has to offer when the time comes, for PDP you have till 2015 to prove to us you deserve another term. God bless our country Nigeria

deri

on whose behalf is buhari talking-is it as the presidential candidate of APC or the defunct CPC-buhari be told to stop fooling himself–he is out of the race–anoda ribadu dumped by tinubu—cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!

COMMON SENSE

Nowhere in the article did he say he was the presidential candidate, “My decision will be tied to the constitution of the APC. If the party chooses me as its candidate, I will contest. If the members do not consider me, I will not contest but I will still support the party. My decision to run for 2015 will solely be that of the party,” Buhari said.”. Lets be objective guys!!!!!

bethystar

Buhari may have kept a good record till late when he used his actions and words to destroy his reputation in this country.
Majority of Nigerians would love to see a very good candidate from APC come 2015 and if they eventually go for Buhari, PDP will be celebrating to the polls.

deri

Leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the time was not ripe for the party to be talking about its presidential candidate, adding that it is not its priority now.

The party also warned prospective members to stop talking about their ambitions, saying until the conclusion of its congresses, what is on the ground was an interim arrangement.

This was as it said all communications regarding the party would emanate solely from its interim national publicity secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, while it warned those calling themselves party leaders at the state level to desist, as “they are not yet authorised.”

There has been wide speculations that some leaders of the party had been tinkering with the possibility of fielding a Christian candidate from the North as the presidential candidate, with a Muslim deputy president from the South-West.

But, a leader of the party and a former presidential candidate of the now defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari, was said to have kicked against the proposed arrangement.

PDP has failed us all, they are known for bad Governance; bad roads, poverty, insecurity, no pipe borne water, corruption . PDP keeps promising and never deliver, there is nothing good about that political party. Please fellow NIGERIAN lets vote APC come 2015, we need a change. APC is a collection of all Nigerians ……. North, South, West and East.

Uzoma

The problem with some members of our generation is lack of knowledge, wisdom and focus as a result of poor leadership and corruption which has obscured their vision to embrace truth and unbiasedness. The fact remains that we have tried PDP for over 14 years and things keep getting worse. There is nothing wrong having APC and General Buhari, speaking out the way the have always done. Calling Buhari names does not solve the problem of Nigeria. Buhari has remained one of the best if not the best leaders ever that presided over Nigeria’s affair. Religious inclination, tribalism and clannishness has beclouded the vision of the younger generation that they no longer reason aright. APC’s emergence is a good development for Nigeria’s democracy and we should rally round it to have a breathe of fresh air, of which if they fail to give it to us, we wait to throw them out of power through our votes during election. Those siphoning and crippling Nigeria are from the North, South, East and West- muslims, christians and atheists alike. We should all rise beyond myopia and save Nigeria from PDP and bad leadership. Boko Haram is a creation of PDP likewise the Niger Delta militants, as well as, kidnapping and high level of corruption. The polarization of the country is created by the PDP so as to cling unto power. I pity my generation who think it’s by taking sides along religious and tribal line that will solve their problems. You guys are being used by these selfish blood-sucking PDP leaders to achieve their selfish interest, or rather made not to think aright due to the situation we find ourselves- being crumb eaters from our on dinning table. Until we try out APC, we have no basis of condemning them. The records show that APC governors are performing much better than their peers in PDP, not withstanding the huge financial resources at the disposal at many PDP controlled states. Things are even worse at the Federal level, where President Jonathan and his team seem clueless as to providing leadership that has eluded Nigeria. Nothing on ground to show. Only on NTA and pages of pro-government newspapers you can see Jonathan’s performance. We better think twice if we really wish for a brighter future for ourselves and children yet unborn.

PDP is not Nigeria’s problem. Nigerians are Nigeria’s problem. If we change ourselves the country will get better.

Dr Pat Kolawole Awosan

@ Jide and his ilks:In civilize society who cares how long a public official or veteran politicians has been around as some senators do served their constituencies till old age of 90 years in USA if his record is clean and impact the lives of the citizenry positively.
So General Buhari served the nation as military head of state from december 1983 to august 1985.
General Buhari achieved a lot within the spate of 20-months he was head of state.General Buhari government introduced anti-corruption war,fought a vigorous war against drugs pushers and carriers,introduced WAI,introduced queuing up in public places like banks and post offices on first come first serve basis and Nigeria image changed within the period General Buhari led Nigeria untill General Babangida carried out a palace-coup and removed General Buhari and late General Tunde Idiagbon in august 1985 which was complete draw-back for Nigeria state.
This is why Nigerians who witnessed General Buhari regime excellent performance will all wish he retun back to power so as to help cleanse up Nigeria official corruption practices and eliminate looting and embezzlement from Nigerian public place and move Nigeria forward in line with Ghana,South Africa and Asian tiger developing nations.
General Buhari is the only living former head of state who carries no corruption baggage and his public service record is clean and he is the only former head of state who is not a multi-billionare but live on his retirement pension.Very transparent man unlike president Jonathan who failed to declare his assets as Jonathan does not give a damn.

Dr I have had cause to reply you again on your misleading posts.I wonder why people like you who pretends to be enlightened should be peddling propaganda and falsehood even when you claim to be living in a civilized society is it bcs you a Yoruba who had lost d capacities to stand for d truth.how on earth should Nigeria be so bewitched as to be going backwards to d point of handing our govt over to a buhari who overthrown an elected govt claiming they were corrupt only to hand Nigeria over to his friends who looted Nigeria to a pulp and destroyed d fabrics of our nation while rewarding d same pretender with a PTF chairman where he helped himself with billions of naira with which he had engaged with d presidential shadow chasing for 3 consecutive times or where do you think that buhari gets d resources for a 3 consecutive times of presidential contest.

APC!!!! PDP!!!!! GEJ will never get commendation if even he provides power in this country. THERE WAS A WHOLE HULABALO BY PUNCH PROPAGANDA AND GEJ HATERS. And what was this? Allegations that GEJ will not allow APC to be registered?? He’s influencing INEC, He plans to rig elections. GOD SAVE US.
We always miss the point cos of our blindness to progress, tribal and religious bigotry.
GEJ HATERS HAVE NOT LISTENED TO THEIR “MESSIAH” (BUHARI). HE THANKED INEC FOR THEIR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. IF ANY OF THESE SO CALLED APC COHORTS WERE IN GEJ’S POSITION WOULD THIS HAVE BEEN THE SAME OUTCOME? FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

hellen emili

The same power they seek was with them for over three decades, and yet the North is counted as the poorest and most backward in terms of education and human development. It then means that those who clamour for power in the North do so for their own selfish aggrandisement.

What is the need of clamouring for power when they cannot use it to develop their region?”

My advice to our brothers in the North is to be considerate and stop seeing political power as their birthright. At this point, one begins to think that some cabals in the North manufactured the Boko Haram just to stampede Nigerians into agreeing to their terms of taking power back.”making it look as if the president is not working,

this three men must be question for nigeria problem, buhari,tinubu,falana.

i see them working together just to sit on power,causing more harm in the country,always fighting the president for no reason,they never for once praise the president for his good work,only to sit down and find fault out of no fault,and they keep on using democracy as an excuse.fools

The truth here is, for the youth of Nigeria and Nigerians, PDP is out of the equation come 2015 all we need now from strong opposition party like APC is to present an ideological and salable candidate, d view here is, even if an angel come and contest in 2015 under d platform of PDP, he will fail cos they will corrupt him. It is in them.

Truthbtold

Dr Dr….are you missing the point too? Your messiah (Buhari) just commended INEC for their professional advice. Doesn’t this tell what kind of person GEJ is? A man of integrity and humility? Do you think if this was any of your so called APC alternates, the outcome would have been the same? A party where OGA ON TOP decides who does what? You really make me laugh with your comments. We are blinded by bias. He who never commends others when due…

Some months ago the hala was GEJ never wanted APC registered, Jega has been bought, GEJ wants to rig elections; GEJ has sponsored other APC acronyms. TYPICAL DISTRICT 9 SYNDROME. FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

Solomon Alagbe

If we have to go through the record of all this political party we are not going to vote for any of them, but we shall continue to pray to God Almighty to choose for us, so that they will have change of mine. IJN.

Obviously Buhari is not salable, d party should search for credible Nigerians we have them, and for d PDP publicity sec speaking, may u have devised a better means to rig the election buh I assure that u can’t eat ur cake and have the youth are on their feet. For how long will we be suffering dis maltreatment, no job, no light yet u fail to creat one yet ur cost of governance is the one of the highest in d world yet u failed to cut it. A graduate spend 8-10 yrs at home no job. Annoying

Truthbtold

Dr Dr…I’ve told you to be objective and don’t just see in the box. GEJ who allowed INEC to do their job independently will now come and rig elections. IS THIS THE BUHARI DOCTRINE….LOSE AND SPREAD LIES, PROPAGANDA AND MAYHEM. I’m sorry for your students or patients cos they will never be told the truth.

More facts have emerged over reported refusal of former Minister of Defence, General Theopilus Danjuma, to accept invitation of the APC to stand as its presidential standard-bearer in 2015 election. Some chieftains of the party had suggested the option to the Taraba-born philanthropist, in their bid to field a northern Christian against President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.

Danjuma, it was reported, told the emissaries that he was not interested in running for the presidency, as he was committed to spending resources and time for the development of the underprivileged through his foundation.

A source at the foundation headquarters in Abuja disclosed that the General revealed his plan to use the foundation to touch lives and change the fortune of many Nigerians for the better. Hope IBB ati Buhari the serial loser are reading this.

Al_Hakiu

Wait! Has Jonathan said to anyone that he is running for President come 2015?

No?

So what makes you think TY will talk differently?

If you believe this, you will believe anything.

Anyway, is it not you deri?

Leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the time was not ripe for the party to be talking about its presidential candidate, adding that it is not its priority now.

The party also warned prospective members to stop talking about their ambitions, saying until the conclusion of its congresses, what is on the ground was an interim arrangement.

This was as it said all communications regarding the party would emanate solely from its interim national publicity secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, while it warned those calling themselves party leaders at the state level to desist, as “they are not yet authorised.”

There has been wide speculations that some leaders of the party had been tinkering with the possibility of fielding a Christian candidate from the North as the presidential candidate, with a Muslim deputy president from the South-West.

But, a leader of the party and a former presidential candidate of the now defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari, was said to have kicked against the proposed arrangement.

caesaro

So when inec pointed out that APC needed to have signatories from all geopolitical zones they hurriedly searched for whoever to do this from zones they earlier neglected? In other words, it is still not a true national party!

disqus_is10u9UZrh

If Akande is now calling for GEJ to join their APC. It means GEJ is doing very well. So the hatred for the past PDP rulers is what they transfered to GEJ. Secondly, this party has no manifesto other than to “push out PDP” after which it will be a game of gamble. Hmmmm Nigerians are watching

Al_Hakiu

LOL!!!

You must be one of those who voted for Jonathan not PDP. Abi?

Dorokinzo

Buhari wept openly b4 the press when he lost to GEJ in 2011. He will commit suicide by the time GEJ disgraces him in 2015.

Christian

Two can not go except they agree, This contrary Nigeria belong to all us, so the New meager party APC should support the Good Government of Good luck Jonathan, for peace progress and unity. If they are not fitting for there selfish interest

HELLO

PDP had all the oppotunity to transform Nigeria into a better land, With the vast human and natural resources on the table. Nigeria’s income from the year 2000 – 2011 if far beyond its income frome 1960 – 2011,what an oppotunity for PDP to utilize, but instead, corruption of the highest order took it stage from mass spending on legislature to money politics, frauds, oil theft, power contract scandals, sales of government properties to themselve, fuel susidy scham, pension sheme scham,insecurity, indicipline etc which is still the order of the day. In a democratic setting were freedom exists, opposition to this acts should be most welcomed.

If you are a follower of the nigerian situation for the past 14 years, since 1999, it is evidently clear that there is no single person that stood up to oppose the PDP with all these acts like General Muhammadu Buhari (GMB), although allot of people talk against the PDP. As he (GMB) always said, ” It is the responsibility of all Nigerians to raise against the mass curruption and indicipline going on in there country, in order to save it” . How many among the ex-Nigerian Leaders are truly against corruption and indicipiline, if they are, how many among them came out to act against it, From Shagari, OBJ, IBB, Abdulsalam, TY, Ekueme, GEJ, Atiku, Anenih,Tukur etc. After all, They are the formidable force called PDP. They all hate him because they know him better than us. They are afraid of his return.

If you care to know, Nigeria cannot implement any tagible project in this environment full of curruption and selfishness. It is a common beleive that currupt free environments experience the fastest development and policy implementation. Curruption in Nigeria has now eaten up to the security were the final hope lies, that is why we are prone to all security threats here and there.

I blv. that GMB deserve to be respected and commended for his struggle, He mention one time during his presidential campaign in Abuja that ” I served Nigeria in different capacities, as a military officer to the rank of a major general, as a governor, as petroleum minister, president and as the PTF chairman, but i neverpocket a single kobo illigally from the federations account, i challange any one aspiring for the same office to dare make such a statement.

GMB is the only Ex-Nigerian head of state that has buch of enemies of his type, from the ruling class to the Dangote’s, Adenugas etc only because he believe in Social Justice. Whether he will realize his dream of seeing Nigeria a better place or not only God Knows. But i believe he should be respected for his love for the betternment of Nigerian People at large.

Henry Onwugbenu

Now, his aim is to make sure that PDP is out of the picture completely, one thing i’ll like to ask this TESTICLE is that, Nigeria is a country that needs to be moved to a point where one will be proud to identify as a citizen, he has taking the matter personal. Some one should please tell this man to go and escort cows, he had his chance what did he do?

Buhari said, “I thought about this merger in 2007. This is because I found out that none of the opposition parties can challenge PDP successfully”. Meaning, Buhari want Nigerians to know that he was the architect to the formation and not Tinubu and also Buhari has concede defeat because he believed PDP is the stronger party.

”These feelings and belief is across the country, not only in the North or in the South-West. There is a good feeling about the party in all the political zones of the country”. The fear by Nigerians that APC is the party for the North and South-West is re-emphasized by the phrase ”not only”. My advise to APC is that they are not yet reap to contest for presidency because its not only about the North or South-West but the whole Nigeria. Instead they should concentrate to win more Governors, assembly, LG seats for now.

Olusola

Nigerians, pls. can you name any other leaders that can take Nigeria to Glory. i heard you talk about youths, where are they? can you please name them and ask them to rise up for recognition, where are they? Most of these youths that i know are not competent. Leading a nation like Nigeria is not a joke. Let these youths that you are talking about come out, we want to meet them and access their credibilities.

ayobamiba

Godswill Akpabio,peter obi,Adams oshiomole,Oby Ezekwesili,Pat Utomi,olusegun mimiko,etc any of these tested performers can take Nigeria to an enviable height if we leave primordial sentiments behind.

In as much as PDP is not our expected savior in this coming election, APC cannot be the acclaimed savior, both parties are filled with greedy people who are not interested in salvaging the current state of menace our beloved country is in, both parties are occupied by power mongers who will stop at nothing until they gain power and fulfill their personal and party interest therefore in as much as we need an alternative to PDP, APC cannot be the answer.

Ada Uyanwunne

That is a big lie Mr. Buhari. You have been defeated before, not once or twice and you and your bigots will be defeated again. We know who you are and we shall soon see

Jimmy Choo Metosibha

“APC is focus-driven to push the PDP out of power by 2015″…not APC will do great things for Nigeria(ns) if voted into power by 2015. APC, well done!!

The worst mistake APC will do is to present buhari as their presidential candidate. Buhari has been a failure since 2003, so this time he needs to sit back and sleep.

Kalu_J_Okafor

L E S T – W E – F O R G E T —- The ex-Head of State (Buhari)
lauded the Independent National Electoral Commission for registering the APC.He
said, “To be honest, we have to thank INEC because when we thought we had
applied according to the 2010 Electoral Act, INEC drew our attention to the
Electoral Act provision that said that there must be a headquarters at
the federal capital that is good enough to be called headquarters of a national
party. Then there was the issue of our constitution, our manifesto, and the
harmonisation of the main three parties.“We thought that the initial nine
signatories were enough to manage the party on the interim between registration
and convention, but INEC advised us and told us that we needeed to get between
at least 25 or 35 people to come out from the whole geopolitical zones to sign.“If
INEC wanted to be wicked, they could have kept mute and just sent us a letter
that our application was not complete. They could have done that. But for them
to send us an observation which was later corrected, I believe they have been
very impartial and we thank them for that.” BUT ALL ALONG MEMBERS OF THIS
MERGER WERE TELLING NIGERIANS THAT PDP WAS FRUSTRATING THE REGISTRATION OF APC. ARE THEY NOT ALL LIARS? THEY WANT TO GRAB POWER BY LIES VIOLENCE. GOD FORBID! BUHARI WILL CRY AGAIN (FOR THE FOURTH TIME) AND FORM ANOTHER JIHADIST ARMY. BOKO HARAM WILL REFUSE TO WORK FOR HIM AFTER THE NIGERIAN ARMY HAS FINISHED WITH THEM.

a coupist who should be in jail is talking about democracy. I weep for Nigeria.

General Buhari, may I know why you are hiding under the phrase “we”…please tell us know who are the we in the APC…Arrogant Powerful Crooks..APc that will assist you to push out PDP…is it the ACN with star governor of Lagos state Fashola who want the young Nigerian children of school age in Lagos to return to their villages and become illiterates or study Chinese and speak in tongue and who specializes in deporting fellow Nigerians that he hates so much or the silent killers like you who keeps quiet while the house burns or the creepy greedy Tinubu who occupies Lord Luggard’s house at Ikoyi or the master lier Lai Lai Mohammed that will assist you to push out the PDP…..mister get it over your head, your days of relevancy is over…you could be useful to those of them from up country Nigeria and some islamic terrorist and their few supporters but you have no place in the country of my birth called Nigeria…you may need to try the Sahara Desert.

chikeluba

they had a bet for who will rule Nigeria longest. Obasanjo is winning with 11 years, Gowon is second with 9 years, babangida 9 as well, buhari has only 2, so he wants to elongate his own.

ayobamiba

Nigerians hear ye d verdict from on high.even if it remains a second for a buhari to become d President of Nigeria, the powers of Heaven will undermine him for he yet remains a divine reject.buhari attempt for d fourth time to be Nigerian President is akin to an invitation to his heart attack for though he may see that seat but he shall never sit on it .so why embarking on a wild goose chase a fourth time.

Am surprise some pple who r suppose to b at d helme of Gvt r still tokn abt history. Anyway I dnt blame them cos d history about dis old folks dat doesn’t want to leave d Gvt has caged deir leadership skills n aspirations. Is quite unfortunate

Does Buhari sleep without nightmares of PDP at all? APC’s problem is PDP and not what Nigerians can benefit from their imagined victory. Well, the old man has his ways – its either by violence or by terrorism but that year will be the turning point for all of us. Till then

Guys, I
refer you to what Ahmadu Bello said on 12/10/1960.

“This New nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great
grandfather Uthman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We
use the minorities in the north as willing tools, and the south, as conquered
territory and never allow them to rule over us, and never allow them to have
control over their future.”

(Sir Ahmadu Bello, Sardauna of Sokoto in THE PARROT of October 12, 1960)
and the AFRICAN COURIER MAGAZINE of Feb/March 2012

Guys, be
warned

experience

All u supporter of APC, hope u guys read the comment of ur so called BUHARI’

”He said, “To be honest, we have to thank INEC because when we thought we had applied according to the 2010 Electoral Act, INEC drew our attention to the Electoral Act provision that said that there must be a headquarters at the federal capital that is good enough to be called headquarters of a national party. Then there was the issue of our constitution, our manifesto, and the harmonisation of the main three parties.

“We thought that the initial nine signatories were enough to manage the party on the interim between registration and convention, but INEC advised us and told us that we needeed to get between at least 25 or 35 people to come out from the whole geopolitical zones to sign.

“If INEC wanted to be wicked, they could have kept mute and just sent us a letter that our application was not complete. They could have done that. But for them to send us an observation which was later corrected, I believe they have been very impartial and we thank them for that.”

I thought they had accused the president and PDP of sponsoring another party with the same name. they accused presidency of using INEC to sabotage their effort of registration..All APC does is to ploiticise everything just to rubbish the good government of the day…

adegbite blessing opeolu

if pdp will be push out in 2015…………………..am sure is not the the apc, that will take over, less look for another party, let buhari and his mens stop dreaming, they are not capable,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.

vote right next election

The way to a good candidate is a good party democracy . All this it must be Buhari it must be GEJ is just the easiest way to presenting bad candidates. Buhari should also know that it is not all about chasing out PDP but it must be chasing them out with better replacements. Nigerians are not looking for a change of political party name at the center , but a change of political party ideals at the center. So the earlier APC start presenting their ideals and programmes to the nation the better for them . All these trumpeting of chasing out PDP is no issue , tell us what APC intends to do if given the opportunity to serve and how you intend to achieve them . There must be clearity on what you intends to achieve within the 4 years years not within 8 years.
